After a good night's sleep, T was up and raring to go (wearing Daddy's sandals and carrying K's bag)...
After breakfast we left the hotel and went to the toy museum. Downstairs they had an area set up as an old-fashioned school-room, and a display on traditional songs. A lot of popular children's songs were composed by people from Tottori, or at least have some kind of connection with the area.
There was also a room full of instruments for children to get their hands on...
Next we headed upstairs, to a large room filled with toys to play with. If we lived in Tottori city I think the boys would want to come everyday! There were lots of lovely wooden/educational toys and games, more musical things, an area for little ones and a workshop area for crafting.
There was also a very uncomfortable-looking ball pool!
K soon discovered a room with a huge collection of train tracks which he could play with. H and K stayed there for
Finally we went up to the third floor, which houses an exhibition of toys through the ages, arranged thematically. H and I enjoyed spotting things from our childhood, and K found more trains!
After that it was time for lunch. H's brother lives in Tottori but unfortunately was busy that day. However, he did give us a great recommendation for a place to have lunch: a buffet-style restaurant where we most definitely got our money's worth :-)
In the afternoon our adventures continued - and that will be Part Three...
