Our 27 hour journey to Tokyo took just 13 hours aboard the 777. Night time chased us west around the globe, but never caught up. Thankfully everyone closed their window shades. 2 movies intermingled with long naps helped pass the time. Chen, a good friend of Jason’s from grade school met us at the airport and guided us through the maze of trains to our first meal and his apartment floor for the night. Here’s the tomato-based Ramen that everyone ate (except Ryan, due to the mystery peanut ingredient we were warned about, thanks to Chen). Nicole says it was “just eh.”
