We arrived into Tokyo yesterday afternoon and were greeted by rainy weather. Not exactly what we wanted but nevertheless, we made do. We headed over to Gonpachi for dinner. We had a fabulous meal and then headed over to Shibuya and Roppongi Hills. Along the way, Andrea took us to a pornographic restaurant that featured various parts of the human anatomy on display. I will leave the details to your imagination. If you didn't know anything about the human body, this is definitely the place to go. No details have been omitted. If you are a medical student, this would be a good place to study. Let's just say the parts of the body are extremely exaggerated and it was "hard" to take it in. We wandered around town and returned to the hotel about 12:30AM.
Andrea and I went to bed at 2:30 this morning and got up at 4:45 AM to head over to Tsujiki Market to watch the fish mongers work. It was quite active when we arrived at 5:30 AM and nearly got run over by the vehicles transporting the fish throughout the market. I must say, the market was clean without any fish odors. I can't say that would be true in Shanghai. We topped the morning off with a Japanese style breakfast. Sushi! Very fresh tuna. Words cannot express how fresh the tuna was. We even had salmon, shrimp, octopus and tamago (egg on rice with nori). Gotta add the egg to make it officially breakfast.We returned to our hotel room and found Anne and Irene still asleep. They are amateurs. Heading out to explore the other parts of town and will undoubtedly, have more eating adventures.
