Tune in Tokyo - Part 4 - The Final Episode

The 3rd day of our Tokyo Adventure was filled with all kinds of exciting things. Very early in the morning we went to the hospital to have a Health Check done for A by a Canadian Government recognized practitioner. It went smoothly, despite how early it was and how tricky the train transfers were. After some EXPENSIVE, but good breakfast, and a nap...we headed off for the Canadian Embassy. It was a beautiful day!

The signing of our Common-Law agreement went really well! It was much easier than I expected it to be. Which is good. They signed it without any questions or demands for any of the documents that I carefully prepared. It was very exciting and liberating. I am so lucky to be from a country that is so accepting of all kinds of people, cultures, and relationships!

After the Embassy, we walked around a bit and found a lovely park beside the embassy and a neat shrine near the train station. Here are a few pictures from the shrine. I have no idea what the name of it is.

Our last evening in Tokyo was spent with A's Cousin, Shoko. Shoko's husband has a restaurant in Ikebukuro. The first floor is a Sushi Bar run by her husbands father. While the upstairs is his Italian Restaurant. Quite an interesting and delicious mix of flavours. We sat downstairs first and ate some fabulously fresh Sashimi and Sushi.

Shoko's husbands father was a very charming man....and magical too! He has the ability to use Energies to Heal. He took some time to do some work on A's back. A suffers from chronic back pain. Barely touching A's back he was able to relieve most of the pain!

After we ate, and spent some time upstairs in the Italian Restaurant, we headed over to Shoko's place for some wine and cheese. I had brought a bottle of wine from Leonie's Wedding (2 years ago) back to Okinawa from Canada and from Okinawa to Tokyo. The three of us enjoyed drinking such a special bottle of wine.

We had a good time chillin and visiting with Shoko and her cat Ikura. The cat was adorable and attention seeking :) My kind of cat!

We headed back to Okinawa the next day. It was an easy trip home. We were lucky enough to catch a ride from the airport from Mr. Madole. Good to be back in Oki~
