I spent a relaxing day in Yokohama today with family friends. Blue sky, an ocean breeze (well, more like wind)… it was a Sunday well spent. It was my first time visiting the Red Brick Warehouse, a sort of shopping mall now but originally a customs building. One of the perks of Yokohama … Continue Reading
