French Family Very Happy with Japanese SushiNew!!
I took a French family of four to Sushizanmai, a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant in Tsukiji. They were delighted with the fatty tuna (o-toro) and medium-fatty tuna (chu-toro). They made sure to note the restaurant's name and address, saying they would definitely return there if they ever visit Japan again.

The family of 4 spent two hot and humid days in Tokyo. At the Tourist Information Center, they could try on Japanese kimono for free and specially a husband was praised by the staffs because of being fit well. At Asakusa, they ate lunch of Japanese noodle (SOBA) at the traditional restaurant which has a history of more than 160 years. Their speciality is soba with shrimp TEMPURA. They loved these dishes and finished off.

It was really hot day but the couple enjoyed one full day in the Shitamati areas where common people used to live.

I hope that they could touch a part of Japanes cultures and traditions.

While using a wheel-chair to walk around, the mother was very active and enjoyed the trip though it was hot and humid.

Katya, Fedya, and Vika・・・It was exactly one month ago that I met these three single Muscovites.
＊ As the young people were interested in design, architecture, and painting, I took them to the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo in Takebashi first thing in the morning. It was after the Meiji Restoration (1867) that Japanese people learned Western painting from traditional art such as Japanese painting and ukiyo-e. They liked the quiet and warm space where ink paintings and oil paintings were exhibited, and they carefully traced the genealogy of Japanese art from modern to contemporary times.
