Tokyo Giants at the Tokyo Dome





We got tickets to see the Tokyo Yomiuri Giants.

There were nonstop choreographed cheers from both sides, drinks served by our cute, young, incredibly energetic beer girls (they literally sprinted around), and bento boxes for dinner.

Alex Ramirez hit a home run for the Giants.

Tokyo Fish Market: Sushi at 9am






Just caught, just bought and out of this world! From the sea to our tummies... mmm
We waited in line with countless others- many of whom were up all night and needed their morning sushi fix to start their day.

People waited in long lines for these sponge cake things below. People seem to love wait in line for things here. The line for the H&M store was literally 3 blocks long - while the store was open!
