In other, vaguely related news, for some reason the IKEA in Tachikawa is much less crowded than the one in Yokohama. And their delivery service is much faster! Good to know for peeps seeking cheap chairs and printed fabrics (!!!).

Here it Comes!
Strap on your seat belts and prepare for much enthusiastic blithering... for autumn has finally hit Tokyo (well, Tachikawa, but close enough). Behold, photographic proof!
The ginkgos of Showa Kinen Park have turned that glorious shade of goldenrod which delights the hearts of all koyo fanatics. As Tachikawa is about 3-5 degrees colder than Tokyo proper, we got a sneak peak of the autumnal glory which should hit the city in around 2 weeks.

After going through your archives and reading all your Koyo centric posts, one of my biggest japanese wish list items is to see japan in fall. Its my favorite season at home!
ReplyDeleteIs the IKEA related news related to your new apartment? I hope you decide to show us pics :)
Also I love reading your relationship (thats actually how i found you, from texan to tokyo) Could you talk more about you and matcha-kun? Did everything go smoothly moving in together?! Is living together before marriage something thats ok or a taboo in Japan? I'm curious!
Happy Fall!
Hi LLL,
DeleteFall is truly glorious in Tokyo, do let me know if you ever pass through!
Your guess on the chairs is completely correct, btw (^_^)
Thank you so much for your kind words about Matcha-kun as well, I will gladly write more on the subject(^_−)−☆
I also love autumn! But it is quite short in China :(
ReplyDeleteWe went to that Ikea around the time it opened. It was jam packed. Nice to know it's calmed down a bit.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear about your new place and see the designs you've chosen!
ReplyDeleteHi there! Well, the apartment is still a bit of a jumble, but getting there!
