Day 3 in Tokyo - FUN DAY!!

It was so hard to narrow my pictures down from this morning's excursion to Digital Labs Borderless ! I can't wait to go back and see their other installation called Planets - we just ran out of time, trying to fit everything in! Loved this place - the rooms are constantly changing - so you don't even have to move and with in minutes your immersed in another world! So cool !! loved it!!

After 2.75 hours in Borderless we dashed over to our Sumo lunch show. This was highly recommended by my girlfriend Meagan, who was recently there, and I am so glad she told us  to do!! Again tons of Fun, the lunch was super yummy and you could have as much as you wanted, I had seconds !! Bosco got picked to be one of 8 competitors to take on the wrestlers - he was pumped!! Sadly he didn't win his match, but gave it an enthusiastic try!

After Sumo we went for a walk in the area near Senso - Ji Temple and ran into Theresa, Riley & Gavin. They taught us how to do our fortunes at the Temple; and Riley was looking to upgrade his from Bad to Good. You tie Bad fortunes to wire racks so they blow away!

Today was such a special day, because I got to spend it with a great family I have come to adore! Stacy the ship's spa manager and I became good friends, from our first meeting! We have had so many laughs and long chats over my numerous appointments, I love my spa time! I've been lucky enough to meet her sweet sister Sharon and her boys Dylan and Ryan , when they visited the ship last November and today I got to meet Linley , Sharon's hubby and their Dad, Roland , who is visiting from Mauritius . We got together at their home in the southeast suburbs of Melbourne, for a special feast to celebrate Linley's Birthday and this mini family reunion, since we were in Melbourne.

Melbourne is great, I'm so glad we got more time here. Bosco planned a fun night of exploring for us! We took the tram into the CBD, and got off at the Yarra River Promenade , just as the sun was setting.
