Japan

Wow a long time has passed since I posted. Since I last posted we had the great opportunity to take a trip to Japan as a family! It was a long flight Haha!





The girls were fascinated by the bathrooms and the different style of toilets.


We had a wonderful host, my brother Rob, his son Bobby and Bobby's wife Hanna.  I served my mission in Japan and was excited to share this culture with my family. We ate lots of yummy food! I could go on and on about the food.


We went to Disney Sea, a Disney themed park next to Tokyo Disneyland. 

We visited lots of shrines and temples.  We learned the proper way to wash before entering. 



 We even got to see a wedding procession, which is a unique experience. 


We went on an outside obstacle course that was lots of fun too! 

We ate raw fish and everyone liked it!






I can't tell you how much I LOVE Japanese food!

Tyler even ate a fish eyeball on a dare ugh! I don't love it that much.

We went to a really nice warm springs spa/bath house. It was so nice and relaxing. Very beautiful too.

The girls went to the public bath house too. Way to embrace and experience the fulness of the culture. 

The kids had a blast driving go carts on a race course. They had so much fun racing against the clock and seeing how fast they could go!









MMM Yummy giant sno cone. 




More yummy food!



We even went to a bamboo forest.



All you can eat Shabu Shabu! OH my YUMM!


We even got to see and feed some real wild monkeys.

Such a fun Trip!!!
