Still working on a daunting backlog but here are a few photos from session I did with some close family friends. As you can tell it was a lot of fun. They moved into a great new house which has beautiful lighting.

Japan [Day 12] - Cousins


Kai's cousin Kento stopped by to visit. It was like the meeting of two world superpowers. The amount of mischief this two were able to get into was staggering.

Japan [Day 11] - Asakusa

We went to Asuksa today to checkout a nearby shrine. The shrine is a popular tourist spot and it is surrounded by tons of tourist shops. The temple is well kept and has a bright red exterior.






In one of the tourist shops, they had political comic desserts, including some with Barrack Obama.


We capped off the day with some tasty crepes in Harajuku. My personal favorite was the custard, vanilla ice cream, banana, chocolate, and whip cream crepe (right).

Japan [Day 10] - Tofu?

We survived Tokyo Disneyland. We stayed at one of the Disneyland resort hotels, so we stayed pretty late at Disneyland. The hotel was really tailored for kids and had a great play area. Kai of course loved the play area.


There is this great little tofu shop down the street from where we were staying at Ami's aunt's house in Komagome. All they sell is homemade tofu. If you have never had fresh homemade tofu, you are missing out. It has a milky buttery taste. I'm a hardcore carnivore, but even I was craving seconds after trying it.


Japan [Day 9] - Tonkatsu in Nishi-Azabu

Today we had the two best meals we had all vacation. Ami took us to this little place that had the best tempura I've had sofar. It was a tiny little place in Ueno called Tsuna Hachi (5th floor). It was so good that all you needed to add was salt ... no need for all that sauce, etc


For dinner, we we went to a tonkatsu (pork cutlet) restaurant called Butagumi. It was THE best tonkatsu I've ever had!! I was blown away.
I got the sampler dish, and it came with 5 different types of tonkatsu, each with different texture and fat content. When I got to the last pieces, they were as tender as biting into a rib-eye steak with all the flavor. I was in love.
