Family Trip to Japan After 24 Years! - In Tokyo

It has been 24 years since the whole family last visited Japan together!  In Tokyo, in addition to my solo exhibition, we revisted memorable places and did a lot of touristy things.

Mosaic Hello Kitty 

At Shibuya Crossing 


Loved these oyster medley dishes

Shinjuku

So excited at Kinokuniya Bookstore - One of the biggest bookstores in Japan


Saw omikoshi in the middle of Shinjuku

Imperial Palace gardens


We tried omakase sushi at a sushi restaurant in Ginza.  

Menu -  This was not all, by the way.

I really enjoyed their interior design as well. 

Kabukiza - Kabuki Threater

Kids tried rental kimonos for photo-shooting at Sensoji, Asakusa.
This is Furisode, a type of kimono for single women.



Montsuki Hakama - Japanese traditional attire for men


Next destination: Kumamoto, Kyushu
