Traveling Back to Tokyo

This morning we ate a traditional Japanese breakfast. Today was the first day I really started missing American food.

We took a bus from the ryokan back to Tokyo. We arrived around noon. I walked with another girl from my group all the way to the Imperial Palace. It took us over an hour to get there. The palace is surrounded with a moat and guards. The section open to the public is the east garden.
When I arrived back at the hotel I received an email message from Akiko. It was great! I was able to see her one last time. Since tonight was my last dinner out on the town, I thought we should definitely have Japanese food. Akiko suggested a barbeque place where we ordered Japanese hamburger, onions, tongue, heart, and pig guts. For dessert I went to the Hard Rock Café with some friends. I can’t believe that tomorrow is my last full day in Japan!

Our class was very interested in your blog. We especially liked your descriptions of the food you ate. We were wondering if we should have the kitchen prepare some raw fish and pig guts for your return??? P-1

Dear P-1,
Thanks for the thoughtful offer. However, I think the American food will be fine. ;)
