    We always get an apartment that we can dry our clothes and towels over the bath. It’s a life saver. Visited Jimbocho in November. That Art Deco bookshop is gorgeous. We took lots of pictures. Looks like you’ve been following our footsteps in this visit to Japan. 😂. What with the coffee shop the other day! Glad you’re both enjoying yourselves.

      Can't believe we only unlocked the bathroom dryer this year. After so many years visiting Japan 😅 Wow, we might have crossed paths. This trip was also in November. And yes, sounds like our itineraries have a lot in common! Thank you for watching 📚
