A trip to Japan would not be complete without a taste of Kobe steak. This is more than a "taste" hahaha

Cubed Kobe steak with toasted garlic slivers and potato wedges. Absolutely mouthwatering.

Dessert was creme brulee. Dinner was worth the $600!

Nice shots! Where was that gundam in Tokyo? Going in Oct and I'd love to see it, lol. Wouldn't that be cool if that thing actually worked. Last line of defense kinda thing.

^ Thanks!
Gundam is in Odaiba (Tokyo Bay), about 30 minutes by monorail from Ginza. It's far, but you get to see Super Autobacs too!
Unfortunately, Gundam is a temporary exhibit for this summer only. It will be taken down soon. And yes, at night there is a laser show with steam and lights. I don't know if he actually moves though.

Looks like you had a lot of fun! I love Kobe steak, it's soooo goood!
Dang, I thought the Gundam statue might be a permanent structure, I might be going in October and would've loved to have seen it. I'll need to check-out Super Autobacs though, never got to see it the last time I was in Tokyo.
Thanks for sharing!

Marc you're missing something. You're missing pictures of hot girls and women. You went to Taiwan but you didn't go to any clubs...sigh....unless you're saving them for yourself. :lol
