Adon's first trip to Honbu, and a leisurly stroll through Ueno.

So we've got a lot of photos from the areas around Shin-Matsudo (where Rob lives, and we're staying) and also Ueno park, where Anne and I went for a night stroll to celebrate our Anniversary of meeting each other in Japan.
Also, we had our first training in Honbu with Adon. Needless to say, his mind was toasted afterwards.

























Our first night in Honbu this year! Soke's class!

Japan 2013, Day One

We've made it to the Land of the Rising Sun! Twas an excruciatingly long flight, but we persevered and overcame.

The chaos after the storm.

However our hardships did not go unrewarded; Anne was soon behind us on a flight from Stockholm.
The three amigos are united!




After unloading our luggage off at the house in Shin-Matsudo, we move with singular purpose, our stomachs uniformly crave the bountiful goodness that is grilled meat.
