There is so much to catch up on with blogging! I didn't bring my computer with us on vacation to Tokyo, so I am a tad behind. Before we left, Husband's co-worker invited us for a BBQ during the day and then we'd go together to Bon Odori at the kid's school. Obon (or Bon) is a festival to remember your ancestors. Often people have family reunions and clean the graves of loved ones. They cooked us sooo much food and so much of it was unusual to me and so fun! He cooked fish on a grill. He cooked it whole with salt on the outside. It was delicious!! He also cooked beef tongue, which was good. And, chicken skewers (some of which were chicken cartilage). It was all yummy, although I was so stuffed and couldn't eat much. It was also hard to eat because it was very hot outside. The family has three kids and they played in a little baby pool that barely fit all 5 of them standing up. But they had a blast anyway....
