While looking online for attractions in Tokyo Brandon wanted to see, my wonderful hubby found, NINJA, one of Tokyo’s Top 10 Themed Restaurants. We decided our recent long weekend trip was the time to explore the Ninja hideout and enjoy their Ninja food. Since it’s location is super-secret (well, maybe not all that “secret”), we decided to schedule a 4.5 hour flight delay (well, perhaps we didn’t actually “schedule” it) to throw any would-be trackers off our trail. We flew from Naha to Haneda (Tokyo), ran to catch a train, then ran to catch the metro. There was no way we were going to be responsible for anybody finding the NINJA hideout. After all that running (carrying heavy backpacks), we were only five minutes late for our rendezvous with the seating hostess.

Hard to believe that three years ago, we were on another tropical island (Jamaica) getting married on the beach! Three years later, we are loving life together on a subtropical island and can see the beach from our window!
