Special Guests from SG

We have special guests from Singapore this week. Aunt Mei Yan and Uncle Clement arrived on Friday for their honeymoon trip. After picking Justin from school, we went to Krispy Kreme to buy doughnuts. While we were in the queue, the waitress gave out original Hot Glazed doughnuts. We both had one each and it tasted yummilicious - warm doughnuts that literally melt in your mouth! The dozen doughnuts that we brought home were snapped up the next day.

We had dinner with Aunt Mei Yan and Uncle Clement before they continued their journey to Hakone, Kyoto and Osaka. They came back to Tokyo the following week with lots of presents for us - lovely red bean pastry, Monster Inc. and Pooh bear buckets from Disneyland filled with popcorn. We headed to Aikihabara for lunch (they gave us a treat too) at Sushizanmai. The seafood comes fresh from Tsukiji Market everyday.

That was the first time I tried sashimi Uni (roe of sea urchin) but it tasted a little too soft for my liking. The rest of the sushi and sashimi was fresh and good. Oishii!!

After lunch we went to Yodobashi, a huge store which sells anything electronic including bicycles. Yes, bicycles. We bought bikes for the kids and they did a "test drive" at the garage.
