Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto

Hello,

We just got back from a wonderful vacation in Japan. Rene and Ben were the cream of the crop hosts, showing us the sites they knew we would love (primarily food and drinks). The Japanese diet was jaw dropping. We both came home and had to take showers. We didn't know those animals were legal to eat, let alone to eat raw. But they were all fairly delicious.

Tokyo was amazingly fun (again a huge thanks to Rene and Ben). We karaoked, watched the freaks and the Japanese rockabilly gang in the park, and ate at a Christian themed restaurant. We saw amazing temples, beautiful parks, insane "Blade Runner"-esque lights, had a milkshake drinking contest (which led to many frozen brains) and enjoyed the future of toilet technology. We took extra, unnecessary trips to the bathroom for pleasure.

Our flight left at 10 A.M., so we woke up at 4 A.M. to visit the famous fish market. Ben promised tuna as big as Danny Devito and we were not disappointed. We then ate what was probably the greatest sushi we will ever have in our life. Until, of course, we return to Tokyo.

We are now back in Taipei. Yesterday, we went to the night maket and ate fried food so today we climbed a mountain and ate at a vegan restaurant. Still a lot to do in this great city.
