Tokyo Overnight


The two youngest didn't have school on Thursday so I rented a hotel room in Tokyo at the military hotel with some other friends. We went out to dinner at the Kawaii (cute) Monster Cafe in Harajuku. Harajuku is a trendy and strange little area and this restaurant fit right in. It was a little exhausting with all of the kids and the trains/transportation to and from but it was a fun experience.

The restaurant was supposed to be the stomach of a monster. There was the milk area, the mushroom area, the lips and the bar experience. I didn't get a picture of all of them, but someone must have really been on something to think this up.



This was a huge spinning cake in the middle of the foyer with animals and candy looking stuff on top.

The milk area featured upside down bottles with animal heads drinking from them.



Dax had a monster blt for dinner and the colors were all different flavors of sauces.

Holly had rainbow pasta and the sauces were all different flavors as well as the pasta being multi-colored.
After dinner, we let the kids swim at the pool until 10. 

The next day we took the kids to Shibuya to the street crossing where there could be up to 3000 people crossing at any time. This time it wasn't too busy but it was fun regardless!!

Matt and Cady had a date night in Yokosuka while we were away. They had some yummy Indian and spent some time wandering around off base. They had a great time as well.

Japan looks so incredibly interesting. Thanks for taking all the pictures. I love seeing you and Matt and seeing how the kids are growing up.
