Tokyo Thanksgiving Trip – Day 4 Part 2

After spending morning at the Dome city, we headed to Ikebukuro (池袋)

DSC00709

Time to eat lunch!

DSC00711

Aiden rushes to look at a menu.

DSC00733

Very professional!

DSC00744

He already know what he wants.

DSC00748

Mommie’s light salad meal with smoked salmon and proscuitto

DSC00754

Aiden loved Daddie’s meal!

DSC00761

And off we go to the aquarium.

DSC00762

Such a cute garden!

DSC00763

Christmas for the shrimp too – so thoughtful.

DSC00774

Aiden is actually interested.

DSC00778

The last time we went to see fish was in Vegas back in May.

DSC00787

Nor when we were in Vegas in August 2013.

DSC00803

But this time, he was very engaged.

DSC00834

Sometimes he would stray away, but most of the time he was interested in looking at the fish and other sea animals.

DSC00836

The one he knew most was of course NEMO!!!

DSC00847

He would point to the fish that don’t move and say they are sleeping.

DSC00853

He was amused when he saw the fish poop in the aquarium.

DSC00854

Naughty Fish!

DSC00860

It was fun, especially because he did enjoy himself.

DSC00865

And it was nice that he got a good seat – up close!

DSC00873

He even skipped his nap time.

DSC00884

But he wasn’t too interested in the seal.

DSC00889

Maybe because there’s not much to see with the seal.

DSC00900

What a huge interesting fish.

DSC00908

Some of these fish look like they come from cartoon.

DSC00920

Who knew they are real.

DSC00926

Daddie took lots of pictures while Mommie followed Aiden around.

DSC00944

Aiden likes the turtles and tortoises too.

DSC00950

He kept saying this one is clean and that one still needs to take a bath.

DSC00956

So serious!

DSC00960

These fish are much more interesting than the previous aquariums we’ve been to.

DSC00989

We can’t believe how long we were at the aquarium.

DSC00992

I thought we would be in and out in about an hour.

DSC00999

Such tiny creatures.

DSC01008

This looks mutated

DSC01012

It’s actually kind of scary.

DSC01014

I don’t recall the name of it.

DSC01017

Aiden says the turtles are sleeping.

DSC01023

Such beautiful coral.

DSC01035

Some places he would go back to, turtles were one of the animals we returned to.

DSC01040

He wanted the turtles to moved to the parts with water.  Why?

DSC01048

So they can take a bath and be clean!

DSC01053

Daddie’s favorite penguins.

DSC01056

Aiden asked what their doing, and I told him they are standing because they like to.

DSC01060

Aiden said that he wanted to stand too!

DSC01075

Aiden touched the antlers, but he didn’t like it.

DSC01076

In the meantime, Daddie was looking at the storks.

DSC01079

So no picture of that.

DSC01083

Can’t catch all the first moments.

DSC01089

Galen said tomorrow will be a long day so we should head back.

DSC01095

No wandering around tonight.

DSC01096

We didn’t know what to eat and didn’t want to roam around.

DSC01098

So we stayed around our hotel area to eat.

DSC01099

We went to eat sushi of course.

DSC01101

Quality was not that great.

DSC01103

But we did try a few different things.

DSC01106

Aiden is showing us the way.

DSC01120

Hairy crab.

DSC01126

Shrimp sashimi!

DSC01132

What an awesome nighttime snack at the hotel.
