Did some work in the morning, and in the afternoon my family arrived.
Dad and both sisters. We met up with them at their hotel and then
went to get something to eat. The closest place that I saw on the way
in was an IHOP, and since we were all hungry and didn’t want to have
to make a big production of finding a place, we went there. I also
happen to really like pancakes, and haven’t had many since moving to
Japan, so IHOP it was. On the way in we were accosted by a big
pancake (“Charlie”) and he gave us some coupons that we used on the
way in. Charlie was pretty cool as far as pancakes go.
We had some time making sense of the menu, and I went for a Rooti
Tooti Fresh and Fruity (strawberries.) A while later we saw Charlie
trying to get into some door. He was having a tough time because he
was about 4x wider than the door. He eventually turned sideways and
slid in that way. Surprisingly, he came back out bearing our
pancakes! I didn’t actually get a shot, but it was very funny. It
looked like pancake cannibalism.
Not sure what else happened that night, but we made it home and got
some sleep. The rest of the week people start showing up and things
start to get busier.
