Top 10 of 2009--Tokyo, Japan

I know that this post is a bit late as an end of the year wrap-up, but December and January have been busy. Since I am now officially calling our main floor moved in I thought I would take some time to blog. Here are a few of our favorites from last year in Tokyo, in no particular order, we enjoyed so many different things!

#1 All of our great friends. We truly developed some wonderful friendships, here are a few friends from J's school.

#2. Takaosan. Great scenery and hiking!

#3 Mt. Fuji. I really wanted to see Mt. Fuji close up and during our last week in Japan we took a trip with some great friends.

#4 Kashinomiya Park. Actually I could write a whole top 10 list just about parks. This park held a lot of great activities and we spent tons of fun filled hours playing in the grass and riding scooters.

#5 Undokai. Everything about J's school was fantastic. He was really sad to leave Japan in large part because he enjoyed school so much.

#6 Festivals. Lots of different kinds of fun festivals.

#7 Trains.

#8 Tama Zoo. Especially Tama Zoo with friends!

#9 Train museums.

#10 Grandpa and Nicki's visit to Japan!

#11 Tokyo Disneyland and Disney Sea.

#12 Tokyo City office building. Great views and totally free!
