This was about my firs ever visit to far east, Japan in October 2018, From the very first morning of my arrival I started to feel Tokyo. Tsukuji the great Fish Market was so exiting especially for me. It was first in my life to see a fish which was almost my size. There I witnessed the demonstration of cutting the Tuna form beginning to the end. One hour cruise ride on the Sumida River until Odaiba was also the very first long cruise ride in such a big river. At Odaiba looking up to the Giant Gundam Robot was so fun. In Shibuya, Ginza. Shnjuku I visited the loyal Dog Hachikō statue, NHK station, the Penguin bar the Aquarium where I also got a chance to see those beautiful sea animals for the first time. I went to Akhihabara and different shopping malls as well. In general I can say I have tested the very tasty Japanese cuisine every day of my stay and try to explore different venues in Tokyo. My trip to Kamakura and Enoshima and Yokohama was also another amazing experience filled with so many first time experiences like visiting the great Buddha statue standing next to the breathtaking view of the Enoshima Island to touch and listen and smell the Pacific Ocean. I still have no proper words to express how I felt wonderful. among many, The experimental visit on Japanese cuisine at Meji Kinenkan was beyond words. Everyone in the team opened their eyes wide when we arrived at that beautiful compound and the inside decoration was amazing. Every step from sitting at the table to putting the cutleries and even how to open the pot, and where to put that cover was extraordinary. It was honor to be part of this amazing culture. Between those mouthwatering plates of food every now and then there was a great presentation about every recipe of the food. Itadakimasu and gochisosama deshita. Their deep meaning makes me think it is so rude for every human who is eating food not practicing this beautiful value. Of course I used to say them but now I can say it with full understanding.
