Roppongi Hills

Chris and I headed over to Roppongi Hills Sunday afternoon. A little rainy and cold--but we found some really nice shops to do some window-shopping and a cafe with the best juice ever. It was a guava-peach type combo which we may never come across again, but absolutely amazing juice (and neither of us have ever felt that way about a juice--of all things). We walked around quite a bit, then ate dinner at a really nice restaurant called "Botanica." It was a date night for us.

Awwwe...I took many more pics... (animal shop)
Just so cute

(many shopping centers in Japan are architecturally pretty amazing)

right outside the shopping center was a field of blue and white lights
sooo beautiful--never seen anything like it



we had to wait about 30 min for the restaurant to open
