Alrighty, this is the end. Haha. I am sure you are excited to no longer be photobombed. I needed to make sure I document me trip though - for me. I am awful when it comes to keeping track of my travels. I want to be able to look back and remember what I did. So anywho, here goes nothing...
Tuesday - Visited Mike's school and stayed in due to high winds
We made okonomiyaki on this night with (almost) his entire house. It was so fun and yummy. Okonomiyaki is a Japanese like pancake/omelet made up of crunchy cabbage, egg, meat (optional), and yummy sauce on top. Why I didn't take a photo of the one's we made is beyond me...whoops! Here is what it looked like though. They were kind enough to make me a version without the bacon because I don't eat meat. I am sure it tastes good that way though.
Here is some photos of the Shiba House crew plus me :]
Ok I messed up a wee bit. Here is one more photo from Monday. We had dinner in Roppongi and there is a pet shop there that sells puppies, kittens, prairie dogs, oh and monkeys! Yikes.
Wednesday morning - Fish market in Tsukiji and Zojoji temples
The fish market was pretty wild. It is where all the fish is auctioned off and sold each morning. You can go walk around if you dare and snack on some fresh sushi. The cutesy signs - although cute, are serious.
My last sushi meal
Now ShyScout can get back on track. Have a beautiful day everyone :]

Those signs are pretty crazy haha. I've always kinda wondered about fish markets. Thanks for taking so many pictures!
ReplyDelete~I love your peter pan/polka dot top! SO CUTE! Did you get it there?
ReplyDelete~This may be a stupid question, but did you notice a huge difference in the taste of sushi in Japan versus having it back home in Chicago? Sushi is my favorite food and I always wonder what it'd be like to actually have it in Japan. Silly I know. lol
~That massive cherry blossom is gorgeous!
Okay, I'm done now. Pretty pictures, Allison :)
Oh my gosh! That okonomiyaki looks and sounds amazing! I wonder if I can find some place around here that makes it?
ReplyDeletesuch great pictures.. it really does look like you had a great trip. Hopefully one day I'll go too.
ReplyDeletehow awesome! I want to go! and whatever okonomiyaki is looks delicious.
