Soon after our fire, onsen, and Chinese food, we made it to Tokyo just in time for the new year. We spend the countdown singing karaoke with Kunino's family. We would have forgotten about the New Year if we weren't paying for our karaoke at the time. I know that we were in Tokyo and there were probably a billion things to do to ring in 2009, but being with a close family, singing songs, and NOT driving was the perfect way to finish off the year after so much adventure.
The next day, like last year, we helped Kunino's family with preparing the New Years meal. Her mother made everything and it all tasted so good. Before we left for our trip back to Morioka, I made the family Morioka's famous Jajamen. Probably the only thing I am confident of making for her connoisseur mother.
