Hello Kitty and melted death...

This past Golden Week break in Tokyo, we visited our newest flavor-of-the-month mall, Lalaport Toyosu... again.

Nicole wanted to play in Hello Kitty Land... again.

Thankfully we didn't have to eat faux Singaporean food... again.

This time we went to Bubba Gump's, for those of you who don't know, it's a themed restaurant from the movie Forest Gump. So it serves Southern styled American seafood, which means, deep-fried everything... then smothered in melted butter and other really bad but really tasty sauces, basically this shit will kill you dead in two servings.

Same person eating that garlic bread, dripping with melted butter...

Someone copying her mother...

I, on the other hand, being of slightly larger girth prudently stayed away from the dripping pan of melted death.

After lunch we headed over to Hello Kitty Land, which is really a large play area for little girls to dress up as a Princess, play in a toy kitchen, meet the Kitty or jump in a pit full of small balls. For that pleasure they charge a princely sum of ¥800 for half an hour.










And after all that excitement and fun, we headed outdoors for a Yat Kun kopi-o! Surprisingly it seems to be doing well in this rather odd location.

For some reason, after all that butter, SOMEONE still had to have a kaya toast with her kopi. And finally a walk on Tokyo bay to catch some sun...



And a little tanning session to hopefully melt away some of that butter...

Women don't generally have to worry about cholesterol levels till 55... My worst ever reading was 190 and that was after an entire year of doing nothing but stuff my gut.

Still, "pan of melted death" sounds pretty gruesome, prolly produces instant blockage of the arteries or sumthin.
