So here we are at Yokohama! A port city it seems.

We wondered on in, and I just had to take some photos of this super cute health food shop. It felt a bit like it was out of Diagon Alley with so many Potions and Jars of interesting things.

Even more so when we found a shop dedicated to thousands of types of salt!

To get around, we decided to take the water boat, just to make it slightly different to our usual walkathon.
Here comes Minato Mirai - meaning future port.

Once there we found a full on festival! We didn't need to enter (and probably needed tickets in advance) we could hear just fine as we wondered about.

Plus, there was a full on craft/beach style fiesta going on in the surrounding areas

We wondered Osanbashi Pier with all it's various angled broad walks. We grabbed some fish and chips too! Although it was actually mackerel pieces and fries.

Yamashita park lies along the coast too, and connects most of the sights.

And we walked through a beer festival! There seems to be festivals everywhere.

Minatonomieruoka Park was very pretty, although yet again it is the battle of the stairs! You would think I'd become better at them by now.

We then headed back to Tokyo for the baseball - but it was sold out. Not that we minded, we just found a gorgeous Italian restaurant, and stayed out until 1am! So much for more sleep on the weekends :)
