Tokyo Conference Trip 2018: Day 2

Spent the morning looking through my slides before meeting with Yoshi-san for lunch at 12pm. I knew Yoshi-san through a friend. He is a retiree in his 70s and he has earned my greatest respect with his love of learning. Yoshi-san has been travelling around the world learning English and the culture in each place he studied at such as Australia, UK, USA. I only hope that I have the same energy and love of learning when I am at that age! 
Yoshi-san took me to a traditional Japanese restaurant in an office building (near where he used to work) and it's close to my hotel. This is the first time I tried Kaiseki meal in Japan! Each dish was artistically presented and the taste was really delicious. We proceeded to have tea and coffee in another office building nearby. We had a great chat and we parted ways just after 4pm. 
I went to Harujuku to visit my favourite shop, b-side label. Bought a couple of stickers - summer limited and local limited editions. :) Had a quick look at Kiddy Land too and bought cutesy stuff. Since I am already in Harajuku, I had the famous crepe before buying dinner back to my hotel room.
Harajuku crepe!
Simple dinner from the convenience store
