Dragon Bites Baby
In Yokohama(the 2nd largest city in Japan) there is a beautiful China town. I decided to go to check out the Chinese new year celebration. They have great food specials, my wife and I went to an all-you-can-eat place that had the food on a round conveyer belt, so you don't have to ever get up. It cost about 12$ and the food was not too bad. We then went to see the dragon dancers that went up and down the main street bringing luck to shop owners and onlookers. It is said that if the dragon bites the top of a childs head then the child will grow up healthy, so there were lots of babies there to be bitten. Later we went to a beautiful temple and burned some incense and checked out the amazing design and architecture of the building. To top the day off we had our pictures taken in some traditional Chinese garb. All in all GOOD TIMES!

mexican food in Japan
In Japan there is a plethora of restaurants of every nationality, creed, style and design. But to have some very cute little old ladies cook you Mexican food and serve you tequila is still kind of strange. The food was pretty good, but the tequila and the people were great. I have eaten a lot of new kinds of food here and there are still more to sample in the future so stay tuned.
