There is so much that I need to write about from this trip. Mostly from the past two nights. Needless to say this trip has been one hell of a vacation. Despite the perils of this trip, it ended rather nicely and on a very high note. With food.

Tomorrow we depart Tokyo once again en route back home to New Jersey/New York area where we will finally be able to rest our weary bones. But not without first unwinding two very confused and worn out children.

From the blogs, and there will be a couple more coming, you know it has been a trip full of sickness, jet lag, work and most importantly food. The first few days saw a night out at Yakiniku with good old friends. Then came the sushi. It didn't end there.

I am glad to announce that another couple we went out to dinner with turned me on to a secret in the very neighborhood where I spend the better part of 7 years living and working around. It is Yakiniku (did I say I can't get enough of it?) and the restaurant name says it all "Yakiniku Champion." More on that later.

Tonight, our last night in town we went back for an old stand-by.... Ramen. Not just any ramen mind you, Cheese Ramen. Woo Woo. I can't wait to tell you all about this place. In the meantime, it is late and I am going to run upstairs not to the 11th floor to hit the hay. LOL What the Fizuk is he talking about upstairs? Well, that is another story a bit of last minute drama here at the hotel for our last night.

Catch you all later and wish us a safe, peaceful, non-dramatic entrance back into the real world.

Catch you on the other side of the world.
