Asakusa Sightseeing 20181222

In middle of December 2018, We have been in Asakusa for the first time in a while. After that, we would took a year end party with my friends. But this story may be for another opportunity...
When we arrived there, we could see so many foreigners are in Asakusa area. Many bakers of rickshaw talk to us. They may misunderstood we are tourists since I brought a DSLR camera and swollen knapsack.
Exactly one of our purpose of visiting Asakusa is to sightseeing. but, sorry, they were not necessary for us in this time.

My first purpose is to ask repair my shoes to the shoe shop which my shoes was made by. Of course I could ask by email or telephone and ship. But since they renew their shop, I would want to see their shop. And also I can choose another repair shop and already had ask another shop several times before, But I have know original shop has unique heel material as cat’s paw and particular work to toe side. Then, in this time, my shoes looks need repair for both, heel and toe side. I decided to go to ask repair to them.
So nice space and guy in their shop. Not only work boots but also like business shoes, Some types shoe lined up for women too. all nice. A cool middle-aged guy who looks foreigner with a MEXICO logo cap also was attracted and held on to the shop's window to see shoes.
I asked their old type which I saw before. He said sorry it is so old type maybe no stock already but they can try looking for in their warehouse if I really want. I just say thank you because I just came to repair in this time. Just my wife has curious to take ladies models.. she said next time when finish my shoes repair.
Anyway It was good time and great shop that I forgot to take picture. I may will not forgot next time.

After the shop, we went toward Tokyo Sky tree and could see beauty trees and took beers & sausages.

There are many shops for fashions and souvenirs in Soramachi near by sky tree. We were able to enjoy a lot.
But I got a sign of back pain.. because may be a DSLR camera was heavy for me finally... then my wife stretched me to help to recover my body in Soramachi mall. I heard a man were very surprised by seeing us to do that. anyway I think the health is more important than caring what others think.
