Today we went to a coffee shop in the morning--a Tully's.  There are so many around, we figured why not?  We got a cinnamon roll, Chris got a mocha thing and I got a matcha latte--which was really good.  Then we went home as we were expecting a call from Tomo to tell us when we were to go get Willow's passport photo taken--but it turns out we need to wait for tomorrow.  So this afternoon we went out wandering again and found a really neat shrine--just in the middle of big buildings.  It was largely an inari shrine, which are foxes--this was specifically for white foxes.  Here's a picture of me surrounded by inari:

It was a very dense shrine area, with a lot of little prayer areas.  I bought incense to burn in one, and a fortune in another (entirely in Japanese, so who knows!).  Above is Chris and Willow at another part of the shrine area.

Then we wandered around Akasaka a bit:

We bought some foods at a convenience store to add to what we had at home, and Chris made a tasty Japanese dinner:

Then we spent the rest of the evening having fun family time--just playing and cuddling :)  Here's a picture of Fox and Willow playing on their Dada:
