Tokyo Day 24 – Sakurazaka Park

By Dad on Feb 24, 2018 in Tokyo, Japan (2018) | 0 comments

Mom mentioned there was ‘roller slide’ parks in Japan, meaning really super long slides. A little research and I found there was one not to far from us on the other side of the huge Roppongi tower. We headed on over to let Tammy give it a try. Pretty amazing nearby with a lot of families from various countries. Tammy’s favorite was the roller...

Before we came we heard a lot about the convenience stores here and how amazing they were. They really are amazing and I will do a video showing what the local store has shortly. Today we decided to try some of the food. First Kaelyn and Tammy tried a chicken burger which Tammy loved, Kaelyn was so so… Second was Tammy and I trying the ‘mystery...

It’s been cool these last few days, 2C for most of the day with snow flurries today. I hear it’s way warmer at home. We’ve been inside most of the day, me working and the kids doing their school work. Tonight we walked Kaelyn to the agency for her 6:45pm and Tammy and I continued on to the park with all the nice...

Tokyo Day 20 – Day Off

Kaelyn called in at 11am and they told her it was a day off (we found out later the main driving girl was sick). We took a quick trip downtown to see if we could find more clothes for Kaelyn. Not so much, very high end stores there. But we did stop to say HI to the robot at Softbank (a mobile carrier here).

Tokyo Day 18 – Laptop Is In

Today being Sunday was a slow start to the day. Pancakes and fried potatoes again. Around lunch we walked to the Apple store to pickup my laptop. Saw a neat car garage that stacked cars automatically. And some neat buildings. The good news from the Apple store was that they were able to repair it in house, vs shipping it out, reducing the cost by $250. They also...

Tokyo Day 17 – We Found Pizza

By Dad on Feb 17, 2018 in Tokyo, Japan (2018) | 0 comments

I did another quick check for nearby pizza places and found one not too far away. Figured we would walk to it, it’s almost at the Omote-Sando station (which is the next stop near our house but a ¥430 ride) and 1.5km away. It wasn’t that bad of a walk, in an area we haven’t walked in before. When we arrived, it was an AWESOME place with actual sit...
