Tokyo - Day 1 ends
Hey all,
We finished up the night with a trip to the Tokyo Metro Government building for some free good views since it was a clear night. We took lots of photos. You can see them on Flickr here. After some photos we were getting hungry and tired.
We tried to find some recommended awesome ramen place, but it was nowhere to be found. We finally gave in and stopped at a Jonathan's. This is very similar to a Denny's in the US, but the menu is obviously different. They had crazy food! Winnie ordered an oriental sundae and Indian beef with Mexican rice. I ordered some baked dish with cream sauce and sea food.
The only funny part was that even though they had a picture menu, the waitress had to stick to a policy and ask us scripted questions. Unfortunately, we had no words in common since she spoke no English and we speak not a single word of Japanese. After a few tries she finally gave up in frustration. We ended up getting the sundae as an appetizer. I wonder if that had something to do with the confusion?
We're also finally cured of Jet Lag. Time for another day of fun.
