Last Day in Tokyo

For me, there is no shame in being coddled, especially if it's by my Japanese family. After a few days with them, I have unwound, calmed down, slept a lot and been fed even better. The sake tour was a fabulous success, thanks to a great working relationship with John Gauntner and a fantastic group of aspiring sake experts. They were a lot of fun, and for the most part, extremely accommodating and cooperative. Now I'm back in Tokyo, getting ready to spend 1 more day in my favorite area, Ningyo-cho, to buy every weird and wonderful specialty food I can find!
