It’s 9:00 p.m. here in Tokyo, 6:42 a.m. back home, and we are exhausted and heading to bed. But first, a quick blog update!
Checking out the doggy station at Pearson Airport
The 14 hour flight was fine. I slept on and off for a total of five hours. Akemi less so. AND, she was sick. My wife is NOT a good traveler. BUT…we’re here!
Our friend, Dr. Blackjack, is also visiting Tokyo at the same time, so we met up for yakitori dinner…
We enjoyed a medly of grilled skewers – chicken hearts, thighs, and butts – some pickled veggies, onigiri for Akemi, and two grapefruit sours for yours truly.
Then, we stopped by 7-11 to pick up a bottle of water and THIS frozen brulee dessert…
Its impenetrable caramelized top defied our flimsy plastic spoon’s best efforts, so we just picked it out of its container and ate it like an ice cream sandwich. It was delicious!
Can’t believe it’s been over five years since our last visit. It’s great to be back, especially this time of year…
