June 1st: 日本へようこそ

We had an overnight flight to Tokyo on Japan Airlines. Even with flat beds & melatonin I still have problems sleeping great on airplanes. I enjoyed a Japanese breakfast and was so excited to arrive in Japan! Unfortunately the Narita airport is far away from Tokyo. We took a 1hr 20 min train ride to the subway in the city center.

We eventually made it to the Conrad Tokyo & took a nap. The room was amazing & we had awesome views of Tokyo from our large windows.
We decided to grab some dinner so we walked to a nearby area called Ginza. This was a major shopping area. The Sony Building was there as well. Obviously sushi is the thing to eat in Japan. We finally narrowed the 1000 sushi restaurants down to 1. We had to take our shoes off and leave them at the door in a locker. We also had to push a button/buzzer for service. Never experience this before. I wish we had buzzers at restaurants in the US so we'd receive better service! The sushi & wasabi were delicious. We enjoyed fried biscuits with butter and honey for dessert. I was beginning to fall in love with Tokyo!
