Japan Visit: Short, but so sweet

So it seemed like the major work I needed to do to get my job situation and other things were taken care of, a long Easter weekend was coming up, and British Airways was having a fare sale.  So there seems little reason not to jump over to see the family in Japan for a week.  I think it was one of the better decisions of recent times, as we all had a great time and got to all relax outside the pressures of day to day life.  And of course, there was lots and lots of eating great food.  I am already looking forward to the next trip.

 

Bakery Run Kanazawa

It turns out that there are a lot of bakeries in Kanazawa.  A lot of really good bakeries.  Will do our best to search out the sublime, but there are the constraints of time and the physical toll of intense morning carbs (but hey, I’m on holidays right).  Today was Donq, where I had a curry bun with soft boiled egg inside (how they got it perfectly done inside a doughnut shell, I’ll never be able to fathom).  Kai is growing up fast.  He picked both his targets (a cheese flatbread and a sweet bean doughnut) and knocked them down without much help from papa, even though I was begging for some of that tasty looking doughnut.
