Sushi and more sushi

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts Food Trip Friday

Sushi Platter

Last week while we were in Japan the kids and I had our fill of sushi from the first night we were in Tokyo. We found a restaurant at the shopping mall near the Hilton Tokyo Bay hotel which we stayed at during our visit to Disneyland.

The portion sushi which was served was much smaller then I had expected. I have seen really large portions of sushi being served in the Japan Hour episodes which I had caught on TV but these were kind of smaller compared to what I visioned.

Another selection of sushi which we ordered as we were still hungry.

We did get our fill of sushi while we were at Kawazawa . We drove to a 100 yen sushi shop which was highly recommended by R’s friend and ate till I nearly burst!! I will share more pictures of that sushi shop next Friday 🙂

Writer’s Workshop: December

December is one of the kids favourite month in the year. It is a month of holiday and enjoyment for them as it is the month that we usually go on vacations. This December started with a blast. We took off to Tokyo , Japan for a family holiday with the kids. We visited Disneyland and Disney sea. Stayed at the seaside and also a inn in the mountainside. We went to visit places of interest, museums, skiing and did lots of shopping and eating too.

The remaining days of December will be filled with other fun activities like play dates, movie treats, outings to parks, swimming and sleepovers. A month to try out many different activities without being restricted by school and time tables.

December is a magical month as it brings lots of hope for the new year. It is a time of celebrations and reflection. As the year comes to an end I have been reflecting on all the good and bad things that have happened in 2013. The blessings that I have received and the goals that have been met.

It is a month for planning also as I will be doing up my teaching schedule for the kids come 2014. Setting new goals and resolutions for the new year and doing up my blogging calendar for next year too.
