Our first full day in Tokyo was completely devoted to them: Friday morning we got up bright and early and headed towards Tokyo Dome to join the line up for concert goods. The ride towards Suidobashi was surprisingly nice. We got there fairly early and joined the line up. Since it was a weekday morning, there weren’t as many people in line as I had thought.

A little behind in updates this time around. It’s Christmas next week! Time has really flown by in a wink. Asia almost seems like a lifetime ago, but I’m hoping my memory will hold out as I try to recall all the details of my trip. Starting off in Tokyo, we arrived at Narita in the afternoon on the 18th.

I had the chance to meet up with my friend Tammy briefly at Quincy Market on the first day, then took a whale-watching excursion in Cape Ann on the second day. On the way home on the last day, we stopped by Waterloo Premium Outlets to do some shopping before heading back across the border. I think this trip was one of the quickest and most fast-paced trips I’ve…
