Japan Wrap-up

I loved the blues of the second night's kimonos. I thought they complemented the kids' coloring well. haha.


Great Torii during high tide.

Dae liked these flower blossom snacks. They were filled with green bean, red bean, and maybe lotus or taro, not sure.

Train. They weren't asleep but were laying.

On our last day we finally purchased drinks from these machines. They had some good juices.

Kids slept during the entire flight #2 home, pretty much, but Dae and I didn't get as much sleep.

Lots of older Japanese ladies clamming during low tide.

2nd night's menu

Baby conger eel. Not disgusting, but not wonderful.

Sea Bream was tasty. Kids were grossed out by the fish head and eye.

Christian feeding Olin second night dinner. I opted for a green kimono the second night, after my pink on the first night.
We traveled over quite a few connections on the way home, but we made it and are doing pretty well. It's 8pm local time and the entire family gets melatonin so we can go to sleep and wake up at a hopefully normal hour for school.
