After Heart Surgery, It's Sushi Time In Tokyo, Japan
Konichiwa!!
Twenty three months after double heart valve surgery, I find myself in Tokyo, Japan for a week of work. (I'm speaking at a conference here.)
Luckily, I have today (Sunday) to wander through the city. The weather couldn't be any better - high 60's and no clouds.
I just went on a long walk through the Hama-rikyu Gardens (pictured above) and I'm getting ready for a stroll down the Ginza district.
Needless to say, I have already had my first fill of sushi. As soon as I got to my hotel, I dropped my bags in the room and darted to the closest sushi bar. Yum! Yum! Yum!
The salmon, tuna, and yellowtail was so fresh. Plus, I really like how they prepare their wasabe. Yes. I'm going for more tonight!
Keep on tickin!
