This update may be a little shorter. I'm tired, and I'd really like to go to sleep.
Today we went to the Showa Memorial Park in Tachikawa. Getting in to the park was a little strange. Everything just transition, fairly abruptly, from a fairly busy city area straight into a park. We rented bikes to see the whole thing. The track we took covered about 14km in total.
The beginning of the track looped around a bunch of stuff for kids. Playgrounds, picnic areas, etc. We did stop at a couple of these and look around. One of them was a supposed to be like clouds. It was a giant white rubber think that you could bounce on. It was too cool to pass up.
We spent a lot of the time at the Japanese gardens. These covered a large portion of the park and included a lake, some traditional style buildings, and a bonsai collection. The weather was good, and it was awesome to get outside for a while.
