Made my booking for the Narita Express this morning, for next Sun @ 15.00, to travel to the airport for my flight home. Blimey, glad I got online, seats are getting snapped up. Went to Tokyo station to download my ticket (you need a physical ticket! to hand to conductor) and sussed out where in the vast complex, you go to catch this particular train. All good and prepared for Sunday.

First visit, the Midtown Yaesu building with its public sculpture, ‘the Shining Star’ by Tokujin Yoshioka, who created the piece, wishing for peace. It’s made of 2,000 octagonal and mirrored stainless steel rods – when sunlight hits the sculpture, the beam bounces off, creating luminous light.

Then to teamLab Planets, a museum where you walk through water and a garden, where you become one with the flowers. People go barefoot and immerse themselves in the artworks – yes I was worried about the possible public health implications of walking through water with a few thousand today :), hope disinfectant was applied to that water!

The entrance was pretty speccy, first going down a darkish path with a blue leading light, turning the corner and whoa!….’Waterfall of Light Particles at the Top of an Incline’.

Walking down pathways that shimmer and shine, and where large balls bounce and change colour when you touch them…

I particularly liked ‘Floating in the the Falling Universe of Flowers’ immersive – the cycle of birth and death continues – flowers grow, bud, bloom, wither, die.

An impressive immersive, sensory experience over an hour.
