Tokyo Auto Show and the great equalizer

In Tokyo! Beau is on Danes back taking a nap! Thankfully we were with Clardon and some of his co-workers because there is no way we would have found this place. The train stations are hard to figure out. I'm sure with some practice they will get easier though. It took quite a while to get here. Stopped at a little bakery and got some really good breakfast treats! Beau did really great and Japanese women were just in love with him! He is the great equalizer!

 Beau is taking a little nap and mom is taking a little break! A ton of walking!!

 Food stand in the back. There were noodles and rice and some other things. We ended up getting some noodles that were really good and some fried balls of something that had octopus legs in them (hard to swallow). We did find some french fries with a few pieces of chicken on top, that was a little more like home. Dane spotted what we thought was a hot dog wrapped in bacon but it was actually this soft teriyaki wrap, around white rice on a stick. It was actually very good and we thought it was probably our favorite thing there. Portions are much smaller here... probably the biggest culture shock is the amount of food you get and the selection.
Guess who! ;)
