Tokyo, Take Two.

So last month we went to Tokyo to celebrate Boo's birthday. It was our second time there in as many years, and instead of feeling like we were tiring of it, it only made us want to make Tokyo a part of our annual holiday itinerary.

I'm not sure what exactly it is about the place that we love. We watch endless episodes of Japan Hour, and never tire of marvelling over the food and the sights. And each time we go, we discover yet more to love about the place. Everything from the people, to the food, the magical and enchanting out of the way alleys and shops, their wonderful service and attention to detail, even the familiar chime of the train that heralds our stop at Yotsuya.

I'd really love to spend a year or so working in Japan, travelling around and picking up the language.

I do, I do, I do.
