First visitors of the year

Yay for visitors and we had some early this time. Our first visitors were Greg and Julie. Greg, or as Mike refers to him Rieker, and Jule made a stop in Japan before heading on to the rest of their vacation spots. They were only here for a short time, but they made most of the time and we made sure they enjoyed all the food that Tokyo has to offer.

After picking them up at the hotel and they settled in, we headed out to enjoy Tokyo. Their first meal, okonomiyaki, a crepe like pancake filled with sprouts, cabbage, egg, and the meat of your choice. This place was also do it yourself, which is always fun.

Next we headed to karaoke b/c its something you have to do while in Tokyo. They were skeptical at first, but then really liked it once they realized it would only be the 4 of us in a room. Less pressure! There definitely was a Rolla shout out as Mike and Greg sang to Ring of Fire. This picture was also taken by the karaoke guy, who gave us 4 free copies courtesy of the karaoke bar.




So on Monday, we went to see Sumo. Who knew someone could like sumo so much, but Greg is that person and enjoyed every single match. It was nice to go with someone who was so enthusiastic since it made us more excited, but 5 hours of sumo is enough for me!

ACTION!
