Asobono at Tokyodome

We had to cancel C's birthday celebration at Tokyo Disney Sea because of the rain, so Team Allen + Papa changed it up and drove over to Tokyaqo Dome.  We spent the day at Asobono which is a massive indoor playhouse.  The boys were off and running right when we got in the door. They have many different play sections for the kids.

C was def ready! 

Papa and the Hanster were getting settled in

S really enjoys giving Papa surprise hugs

Old school game was a hit with the boys

S really loved the train section.  

S wasn't really feeling the bounce house. You can gauge the size of the place in this picture 

Papa loved the Cookie time. She's always a hit!

Alice in Wonderland Cafe

We made it to our first "theme restaurant" in Tokyo and it was as strange as we suspected it to be! Stepping out of the elevator, we were immediately greeted by a harajuku-style Alice. The boys weren't sure what to think, but we were all pretty hungry, and we didn't exactly have a plan B for dinner. 

Ginza looked really cool at night. 

This pasta was pretty yummy. I love avocados with pesto.

We sat next to the giant tea cup booth!

Odaiba- Round 1 and Gundam

Jordan and Binks really wanted us all to go to Round 1 with them before they left. It's like an arcade that also has bowling, batting cages, basketball and a lot of other activities. The little boys were in heaven and even Justin felt young again while hitting balls in the batting cages. Cooper's favorite game was Street Fighter, but he quickly forgot about Round 1 when we walked over to the Gundam Exhibit. He LOVES robots so you can imagine how excited he was to see so many displayed. It was a fun day for everyone!

Ueno Park and Zoo

 One of the coolest things about Tokyo is that you can go a million times and still find something new to see or do. Our latest discovery was Ueno park/zoo. Rain was in the forecast but that didn't stop us from venturing out to see some animals! The train ride was super easy and while there are never enough elevators when we need them, the kiddos were in good spirits and that's about half of the battle when trying to sightsee with little ones!

We made it! 

Coop couldn't look away!
