Visiting Our Old High School




Day 6 in Tokyo: It’s really hot and humid today. This is the kind of weather that saps your energy. The girls have not been getting their usual amount of sleep and they show it. So today is our easy day.

After breakfast we head out to Shibuya and enjoy picking out a gift at the department store for my old principal. We take the train and spend the rest of the morning catching up and reminiscing.

Lunch for us is at Mos Burger, Japan’s answer to McDonald’s. My husband claims it is better than In and Out and definitely better than McDonald’s. Mos Burger has a lot of variety when it comes to burgers, with different sauces and toppings. I think the sauces hide any taste of meat. Regardless, it is a nice change of pace.

Before we head back to our service apartment, we hit the local supermarket and stock up on snacks. Seriously, when in Japan, forget the no snacks rule. Snacks rule here!

Girls are tired so we decide on a short power nap. Thank goodness for a little rest. We are all tired from the heat, humidity and walking. My feet are swollen.

We meet up with the rest of the family and a friend at Meguro for sushi dinner. The restaurant is very popular and we wait for about 45min for a booth since we are a big group. The sushi is decent and it is very cheap. The location is great too…located on the first floor of a building right across from the Meguro station.

Tomorrow we are off to Kidzania!
