And they started picking on my boy playing at slide, as they also started playing there, but seemed like they had their own rule to play. Obviously 2 years old was not being cooperative as he was trying to go down the slide, but apparently those two boys didn't like it.

misty midtown

After lunch with Uncle Beck, they went to the Akihabara for much needed geeking accompanied with Ton, Mo and me went to Midtown as he requested to have coffee. They had citibank supported event of misty garden at lawn, and it actually felt pretty good and cool. Too bad it run about 10 min every hour, though it was a nice cooling down on a hot day. misty midtown Originally uploaded by piroko_kuroda
