Museum free Monday

They are all closed except for the Palace Museum which must be even fuller than it was yesterday. So we 
1. Found a yarn store. The only embroidery thread was Olympic brand which didn't have a skein the same colour as the DMC that I ran out of. So I bought some yarn and needles to knit socks.
2. We looked in all the stores along Camera Street. Jo has decided what camera he wants but it is more expensive here than it was in the single camera store we managed to find in Kagoshima.
3. Walked past the President's Office and its flanking President and Vice President's Archival Museum (not tempting even if it was open), army offices of various shades and law courts to arrive at the botanical gardens which were sweet and weedy. On the way I saw this potted pine which proves that the locals know how to grow:
I also spotted a solution to your courtyard, Margy. Even Harry could make this for you. It has two sheets of re-bar mesh in a frame. You slot pots in at an angle. Easy to change the display.
And I saw this logo again. It is all over Japan. I think, from the web url, that it is a logistics company.
