Good morning! Last day of work before we leave, can't wait! Today shouldn't be bad but I'm ready to get it over with. I have a couple of Zoom motion hearings at 2 which shouldn't be too bad since I only filed a partial response so they don't primarily involve me. I have a manicure at noon and also the repair guy is coming at 8 to fix the leak. But work-wise I'm pretty much where I wanted to be with everything else.
Our flight is at 6 am tomorrow so it'll be an early morning but hopefully I'll be tired for the second, longer flight. We have a 2 hour layover at LAX then the 12 hour flight to Tokyo. I did get us exit row seats that are the front of our section so we have miles of leg room which should help a lot. I try to get up to stretch a lot on flights like that. And at least compared to going to Thailand or Australia, it's not quite as long!
We're spending 5 days in Tokyo, 4 days in Kyoto, 2 days in Osaka, then the last day back in Tokyo before we fly out. We booked a ramen and sake tour and a couple of omakase sushi dinners in Tokyo which should be delicious, and have a day trip to Hakone planned where you can get some nice views of Mt. Fuji. In Kyoto we're doing a guided hike to see the Fushimi Inari (a shrine in Kyoto) and I think doing a sushi making class. No plans yet for Osaka but it's a big city so should be easy enough to do anything, and eat lots of good street food! Seems like there are a lot of cool cocktail bars in Tokyo and Osaka too. Our friends gave us a bunch of suggestions. Should be a great trip!
We get back on Tuesday 4/9 but I'm off 4/10 and have in-person depos on 4/11 so may not make it back on here until that Friday, but hope everyone has a nice rest of their week(s) and Easter, etc.!
A: Peloton.. 30 min cardio HIIT, 30 min full body strength
B: fried egg/egg white with avocado on 2 slices light whole wheat toast
S: apple with peanut butter
L: leftover cashew cauliflower coconut curry with brown rice and broccoli
S: banana
D: leftover crockpot pizza quinoa
Hope everyone has a great day and next couple weeks!

when we go to the Carribbean or Mexico (like this year) we stay at an all inclusive so we are pretty settled there aside from maybe excursions. Have a GREAT time, be safe, and please post lots of pics!! I may stalk your IG... haha
