Tune In Tokyo
Posted by Matt in Day to Day

Well, I landed in Japan yesterday at 3:00 PM (2 AM EST). So far, I seem to be adjusting to the time zone difference quite well. We shall see later on today (If I make it past 4PM, rumor has it I am doing ok). I have uploaded some pics as you can see from Jess's post. Sad part was I did not have a window seat to witness them first hand. Richard, the photographer shown in one of the photos, took the pictures and they are amazing! I will keep you all informed of events as they go. This weekend, it looks like I may get to do some shopping in Tokyo. I will be checking out the "up and coming" electronics shop and I am pretty sure I will be picking up SOMETHING... I will be like a kid in a candy store.

I will keep you all posted on any events going on but please remember I dont have "MUCH" room in my duffle bag if you are all requesting me to bring back a bunch of sake. One per customer please :-)

Ah, who cares about the sake. Just bring back a bunch of Matt. :-)

Okay, now you can answer the million dollar question - how's the sushi?

The sushi I had last night was great :-) Good tuna! I honestly dont know what else I had. The pickled vegies had something to be desired but the miso soup was good :-) However, I am already beginning to crave a big fat juicy steak! Can't wait to come home and cook one up on the grill!

BTW... I dont think you will get a whole lot of matt coming home :-P As much as I am curious about new foods, some are not as good as I expected. As a result, being polite and saying I am full rather then YOUR FOOD SUCKS ASS is going to result in a weight loss (theoretically).

Oh Jess beat me to it! I was going to say that I didn't need anything from Japan except a bunch of Tooie-san! LOL! Glad you're doing well. Be safe. Miss you! *smooches*

LOL.. well, this is your first trip like this after all. I'm sure it's incredibly overwhleming. But good for you for trying it anyway, impressive!

Must have been that Uni with quail egg you braved to psych yourself up for some new food experiences before you left. :-)
