Like last time, I started off my Tokyo visit by staying for a few days with my sister Penny in Shirokanedai. Shirokanedai is an upscale residential neighborhood in Minato-ku, right near Meguro. Residents of this area are sometimes jokingly called Shiroganeeze (like Milanese for residents in Milan).
Except for one day of briefly passing typhhon, the weather has been warm and mostly clear, so I've been very lucky. Autumn is just starting to change the leaves and walking has been very enjoyable. I spent more time roaming the quiet back streets of this area and saw many large homes and well-maintained gardens and parks.
Here are a few photos of Shirokanedai and Penny's apartment.

We lived in Shirokanedai and that picture of the park... I know that park! My kids played there afterschool at Shirokanedai Yochien. Such good memories! Thanks for sharing,

It's such a charming part of town, you're lucky you had a chance to live there! Thanks for visiting my blog.
