Today was our last Saturday night with our dearest Emily. The lucky cow has finished her contract and is now on her way to Mexico for three sunny weeks. Although she will be swanning back through Takasaki before she flies home to Brisbane, it was her greatest wish that we have a small sending off at the beer garden. This time we decided to try the beer garden at Montres. It's much the same setup - all you can eat and drink for a set price.

We'd been there about an hour or so when the weather turned wet. Unfortunately there really isn't much of an undercover area so Sarah went downstairs and stocked up on a bunch of umbrellas from the 100 Yen shop. So, armed with our umbrellas, we returned to our table and continued drinking. See, that's dedication folks.

Here's Sarah and I before we got too damp from the sudden downpour.

Sarah amusing the locals with her singing and dancing.

Here are the girls at the beer garden.

The beer closes at 9:30pm so we all headed over to Odessa to continue the festivities with Karaoke. I managed to straggle home on my bike (and it was still raining) by 3am.

Emily, we are really going to miss you.
