Good morning from Mishima We got kind of a late start because I overslept (whoops) but otherwise it's a great day for a drive to Numazu!

@renkotsuban it looks cool!

Got the second bookmark on the way out

Third bookmark GET: bought Himonora T-shirts from Yokoya and got these bookmarks, then escaped back to the car to bathe in AC and drink water. (I'll take pics of the shirts at home lol)

It is so dangerously hot y'all, have fun but be careful out there lol

Leaving the fish market area for now, gonna come back later to turn in our bookmarks and get final omiyage. TTFN

Oh my god... this cafe has a little "river" with floating baskets with customer orders, and each seat is a stop on the Tōkaidō, I fucking love this so much

@renkotsuban Wow, this is amazing!

[renkotsuban@maestoso.org]

The seats for Fujisawa were already taken so we sat at Hakone and waited for our Neapolitan ice cream to arrive... this was too funny... we were actually just planning to grab the bookmarks and head to the next place, but would YOU pass up the chance to have dessert that came floating down the river?!

@renkotsuban i would not! Looks yum as well

[fredy@tacobelllabs.net]

@renkotsuban omg amazing 🤩

[renkotsuban@maestoso.org]

Walked through Nakamise shopping center and headed to River Books. It was very hot but lots of shade on the way which was nice

[renkotsuban@maestoso.org]

Made it to River Books. We found out that there was a display for RIOT in June, and that the mangaka Tsukada Yūta had stopped by for autographs..... we missed it..... noooooo

Oh well. We got:

- Nihon Genjū Zusetsu (Encyclopedia of Mythological Japanese Creatures)
- the zine How to Book in Japan
- RIOT sticker
- bookmarks of the Himonora dressed to look exactly like the shopkeeper lmao

Wish we lived closer so we could come here more often...

[renkotsuban@maestoso.org]

Technically we have fulfilled the requirements of getting five bookmarks but I wanna go to the other side of the station and get one more from a stationery shop

Then it's back to the fish markets to pick up our prize and omiyage, drive to Ichigo Plaza and then home!!

[sharksonaplane@mastodon.sandwich.net]

@renkotsuban I've had food areive on a tiny train before but never a river, wow! And the theme is so cute omgggg

[renkotsuban@maestoso.org]

We made it to the stationery shop, and I bought a fan and a shitagaki (pencil board? plastic thing to put behind my notebook paper as I write so it doesn't go through to the next sheet) for my notebook. Not exciting stuff but this does at least let us get bookmarks

Getting some ice coffee from McDonald's (and maybe a discreet nap lol) before going back to fish market
