Lost in the cracks of my house’s front porch over a decade ago and unearthed today by a construction project, this “Ancient Mew” card now fully looks the part. Now 22 years old, I am very pleased to have it returned to me, since I thought it lost forever all those years back.

Pokémon Store at the Narita Airport! It’s basically like a miniature Pokémon Center. This just happened to be opening the same day I flew out of Japan, so my trip was perfect timing.

There were some little events going on around the airport to support the opening–I’ll post those separately.
