We’re off! Oh wait, 1 1/2 hour delay (couldn’t get mom out of Walmart)(no, really, our place was late) before we left Minneapolis and since we had 1 1/2 hour layover in Tokyo we were already concerned that we would not get to see Takayla and Jacob. And, we were right.
So, here we sit in the Tokyo hotel, Hotel Nikko Narita, courtesy of North Western (Delta) Airlines! Which, aside from not seeing the kids it quite alright because we got a stamp in our passport books! We want to get maximum use out of those expensive things!!
Not a bad experience other than it’s too late to see anything in Tokyo and were not really close enough to go see anything. So, we’ll speak to some of the hotel highlights.
I gotta say I like the bidet, not a bad idea.
We got a couple free meals and I actually gave sushi another try. I had shrimp, squid, salmon, tuna and flat sushi. I am still not sold. It wasn’t bad but other than the texture my palet may not be refined enough to carve out the differences. The flat fish definitely was a bit more “fishy” than the tuna and salmon.
Now, here is a winner in my book and quite possibly the sole reason for returning to Tokyo someday…BEER IN VENDING MACHINES = Awesomeness!
PS: Takayla, we won’t be there today.
