Patasites!

Is this a first for Blipfoto, I wonder? An 8 metre long tapeworm! No, Sarah is not holding it, that's just a piece of cotton tape which is helpfully provided as an illustration. The real worm is in the case next to Luke. It was recovered from the intestines of a 40 year old Yokohama man who ate raw trout...

This is the world's only Museum if Parasitology, in Tokyo. It's truly fascinating. In the gift shop you can buy some great souvenirs (trust me).

Spoiled for blips today...especially as we visited the Landmark Tower in Yokohama, where the lift whisked us up to the 6th floor in 40 seconds. We could see Mt Fuji from the top.

This morning was so windy and wet. Broken umbrellas littered the streets of Tokyo. So good to see the sun tonight and blue sky!
