A walk to the station
Join me on a walk to the station:
As we head out the door and turn to go up our narrow lane, we find our neighbor watering the street. It is quite common for folks to splash water on the street or sidewalk in front of their house or business after the morning cleaning is completed.
Turn left at the end of the lane and you are on the shopping street that straddles the line between the Bunkyo and Taito wards.
About a block away, on the corner with the sushi restaurant, before you get to the light, you can turn right down a lane that’s even more narrow than our lane.
It’s a straight shot by the way the giant ravens fly. But if everything were straight, we wouldn’t call it a labrynth.
Once you get past this bottleneck, the road widens again, only to end in a very narrow tight turn. The truck at the end of this street is the recycling truck.
Isn’t your neighborhood recycle collection man this happy? He is, for the record, holding a saki bottle, which might explain the glee in his step.
After this last turn we follow the main road for anther block.
Once in the station I let Sachan take the lead. She was buying grandma a ticket.
With ticket in hand its time to head off through the turnstiles
