Fish Food



My girlfriend and I took the kids after school today to a Spa. We have been dying to try out the Doctor Fish. The fish eat all of the dead skin off of your feet. Guess whose feet were most popular? The experience was amazing and the fish felt like little bubbles. We can't wait to go back!

Hard Rock

We had no intentions of visiting the Hard Rock. We got caught up in a moment where other people in the hotel were telling us what a great time they had with their visits there over the weekend. We decided to go and as you can see the little one was thrilled!



Before!
After!
Great waitress, good music!
A cool magician!
Stamped tortillas!

We had a fantastic time!



An Education in Transportation

We had a wonderful time touring through Tokyo, Disney Sea, and Disney. The thing that we walked away from Tokyo with is an education in transportation. We started our journey on this plane. Yes, it's a Pokemon plane!

My students at school talk about Pokemon' all of the time. They were so excited that I flew in this plane.
Alicia and Alex are walking the correct way and Daddy is backwards. Go figure!
We caught a bus from the airport and saw many girls dressed in their school uniforms waiting at bus stops.
Transportation without a car involves a ton of walking!
Alex Sr. mastered the Subway.
Alex never wanted to sit, he only wanted to hang from the danglers.
Hiro-o was our home base stop.
After switching subways to an El train we ended up at Disney to find our next switch to the Disney train. We were amused by the windows, but disappointed in another stop/switch/change.
We're finally at Disney Sea!
We have to take a boat? *sigh*


The journey home!

Where's Grandma?


I asked Mom if she would pick us up at the airport when we returned from Tokyo. She said, "Yes!" and this is a direct quote from her email message:
I'll be waiting for you at Naha when you get back. Look for me in the ice cream shop with the hot water bowls for which we never found out the reason for. I hope you have a great time!
As you can see, we were shocked to not find Grandma at the ice cream shop!
We'll update Tokyo pictures as soon as we can. We had a super time!
