We awoke to another glorious morning and went to the opening ceremonies.
After a tedious "practice session" (which consisted of following a script to make sure the whole judging system was working) we skipped out of the rest of the events for the day and went back into Tokyo. Joe had a guide book that recommended a walk in the vicinity of the Nippori JR Station, which was enjoyable and photo-filled. We had some drinks in Nishi-Nippori Station, from whence we made good our return to the Hilton.
Whew, did a lot on Day 4. I'm tired just writing about it.
