隅田川花火大会 SUMIDAGAWA FIREWORKS FESTIVAL

Who: Everybody!
What: Tokyo Day Three: fireworks festival
When: Thursday, 18/July -- evening
Where: Hotel or Sumida
Rating: pretty

Tonight, in the sky, there are fireworks.

You can see them from the hotel window, but for a better look -- so suggests the helpful concierge at the desk -- you'll want to head to Sumida, where locals and tourists alike gather on the edge of the Sumida River.

[Technically the festival is supposed to happen on the last Saturday of July, but whatever! It's Paradisa. For more information on the festival please visit here, and you can watch YouTube videos here.]

If I get the blankets. [ Lame since it's summer. He knows. ]

You will have one pillow if you give me a hundred kisses before bed.

I'll never make that if you're out there much longer.

Ah, I sense a ploy behind that threat.

Well, we have to factor in that it will probably take at least an hour to undress you. Probably not enough time to put on a nightgown, unless we're ahead of schedule.

Less than an hour. You are the fastest of them all.

Why rush it, though? It's kind of exotic, like art.

You and your bows.

That one probably has a special name, too.

Perhaps I will return once I discover the name.

Oh, now it's like a mission.

Do you trust that I can find it?

You're convincing enough.

Then I will bring home a name or never come home at all.

Those are high stakes.

Where would the triumph be, otherwise? Or the pleasure.

Does a hotel count as home, though? Maybe that's a loophole.

Home is not a place.

It's where the heart is?

Whose, though?

They never say.

Ah, then we shall both wander until we know.

Good luck getting around in that dress.

Have I been tricked now?

Only if you let yourself be.
