First Full Day in Japan

D – Day cemetery in Normandy.

On this Memorial Day let’s all remember and commemorate those who gave their lives so we can enjoy our lives.

First thing this morning we took the subway to Meiji Garden and Temple. No one says a word on the subway and it is spotlessly clean.
This is the gate at the entrance to the Meiji Garden.
Beautiful water lilly pond.
My prayer for health and happiness for all of you is contained in this envelope.
This a rooftop observation deck with a great view of Tokyo.
We had a glass of champagne and enjoyed the view. I am so lucky to have two such amazing daughters.
This is the famous Shibuya crossing. There are five crosswalks at this road junction.
For my mother, Saint Rita. She loves Snoopy and so do I.
We went to dinner at a tempura restaurant. This is the first course. Shrimp Tempura.
Green pepper and flounder.
Thinly sliced mackerel.
Eggplant and cod.
Sea snail and tofu.
Shrimp wrapped in seaweed paper. Roll it up and eat it.
Halibut and a scallop.
Sea eel.
Ice cream for dessert.

It was a great meal and I am stuffed. That’s it from Tokyo. I hope you are having a wonderful day wherever you are.
