I grew up there for a few years when I was a young child, and to this day still love going to Japanese grocery or sweets stores. The food is amazing, the service is impeccable, and the hospitality is priceless. Japan will always have a special place in my heart. I’m glad you had a wonderful time there in Japan.

It's always been a dream of mine to travel to Japan, having studied Japanese martial arts when I was a kid and then taking a couple years of Japanese in high school. Your story just stokes the fire. Dang it! Oh, I’m so jealous of you.

I have been checking back to see if you'd arrived home yet, and here you are! It sounds like you made the most of your vacation and enjoyed every minute. I am glad you had a good time. Too bad for the "welcome home" at the airport.:-( I am glad you were able to off load the pics before the camera was stolen! I look forward to reading more about your journey. What a fun trip!

I enjoy how Japan brings food to a higher level, visually. I enjoy looking at your photographs of your experience and the food. I look forward to more, but I'm sure your ready to get back to your daily life. It's a bummer your camera was stolen and smart thinking to offload your pics. Welcome back.

Luckily for us we transferred our pictures off the camera and onto my IPOD before it was stolen. At least we have the pictures. It’s good to be back!

I never thought anything with "bean paste" would be good, but it is. Can't wait to read more about your adventures. I'm sure all that NY walking will melt away the Japan sweets leaving plenty of room for more taste testing for us all to enjoy. And to that AA employee, keep the camera if you must, but return the pictures of this once in a lifetime trip. Welcome home and thanks for the samples.

Your trip sounds like it was amazing. I can't wait to hear more. Welcome back to America via American airlines. :) If only we could find employees with the work ethic you experienced in Japan. Griff & I are both writing posts about that very subject this week. You have been missed. Wow!!! Your trip sounds like it was amazing. I can’t wait to hear more.

I'm glad to see you and Andrew actually did go to Tsukiji for a sushi breakfast. I know he had some reservations about doing that. :-) And your photos look good. All that wagashi and other sweets make me crave it now. I have a lot of that in my fridge right now but I get tired of all the bean paste as well. :-) Welcome back!
