          New Year’s Eve lunch with the entire family. The two nephews had to sit with Motoko and me.
          The nieces sat with my daughters. The one in black across from Haine is wolverine.
          The rest of the picture is the brothers, their wives and my in-laws.

              Didn’t remember to take the picture until most of the food was taken off. The strings is shredded daikon (radish). It was full of crab sashimi.

                After lunch we split up all the kids went off to Ikebukuro to shop. All the adults went separate ways.

                Motoko and I eventually ended up in Ikebukuro also for dessert.

                Then she wanted to go shopping, saw a police box along the way.

                          Then we walked to a shrine for new year’s blessings.

                            Prayed and then drew fortunes.
                            Hanna got a dai-kichi which is the best fortune.

                            Finally a group photo. We took turns taking so I only have the one I took. No one needs to see more of me anyway.

                                  So January second was another shrine with just the 4 of us. This was a shrine we took Haine to for Shichi-Go-San back when she was 3.

                                    After the shrine was food. Hanna wanted okonomiyaki. We found a place that had been open for 153 years. Was great.
