Family in Tokyo

We arrived in Tokyo the nite of 29 December 2007. We spent the rest of our trip in Tokyo, staying til 03 January 2008. It was really great to be able to hang out with everyone after many days of traveling.

(Going around the table...my cousin Hiroshi, grandma, Auntie Ryoko, Mom, Dad, Marie, Uncle Masaharu, cousin Isao, and Auntie Fumiko. We are at the table getting ready to pig out and eat our new year meal =) )

(Mom, Dad, Uncle Masaharu, me, Marie, and Auntie Fumiko...Hiroshi took the picture...we were all in downtown Tokyo near Tokyo station admiring the christmas lighting display along two blocks of the city)

(going around the table...grandma, Auntie Ryoko, Dad, Mom, Marie, Uncle Masaharu, Auntie Fumiko, and cousin Isao...we were sitting down to eat our first home cooked meal (potatoe croquettes) of our trip. It was delicious!!)

(This is my childhood friend Rie, who lives in Japan now. She and I have known each other since we were babies, so we're basically family! Apparently we're a little older now... =) )
