One of them ate his meal, and then the rest of another guys. Then there was the guy who ate a huge burger at some place, he was sweating near the end :D:
I won't go into the drinking stories yet :twisted:
Ah, Cheesecake Factory, home of the Caesar Salad they use an Olympic Sized pool as a Salad bowl for!
Isn't Kobe Beef better than ours? Why would they want to eat USDA beef?
I want to go to Japan some day. I hear it is beautiful AND DisneySea is supposed to the crown jewel of ALL the Disney Parks.
My brother goes to Japan from time to time with his company. He has own Software company and he travels all over the world. Next time he goes to Japan, he BETTER take his big sister! :twisted:

Kobe Beef is very expensive. We take them to a Brazilian Churrascaria or a nice Texas Steakhouse. It's part of the experience. They don't eat that much beef, but the horse I ate there was excellent!

The entire Tokyo Disneyland Resort is beautiful. The theming is so much better. I didn't get to go into the parks, but from the outside both looked like a lot of fun. There is talk about me going back this year for work, so I'm going to stay an extra day and visit one of the parks, which will probably be DisneySea.

"For relaxing times, make it Suntory time." *
Four of us had Kobe burgers in Las Vegas. The most common description of how it was, smooth.
Was it worth it? No, we have some good burgers around us.

That was a great flick. Most of it was shot in the Tokyo Park Hyatt hotel. I stayed there a couple of times and found it to be an excellent place to stay. Pretty pricey though.

Ever see Tom Selleck in
Mr. Baseball? Cute film, kind of a similar situation as
Lost in Translation, but much more of a light comedy.

I loved Mr. Baseball. Very funny. I thought of it while I was in Japan. I've yet to see Lost in Translation.

Wow, off topic after only less than 1 page! I think my thread just set the SGT Record :D: !
(Not that it's a bad thing or anything, of course :D :)

I spent two days there last summer when I was in Japan. Tokyo Disneyland Park is nice, sorta like a high class mixture of Disneyland Park and Magic Kingdom Park.
Tokyo DisneySea Park, on the other hand...
:dropmouth
It's absolutely GORGEOUS! The level of detailing goes far beyond anything we have at DL (Walt Disney, wherever he is, is likely VERY jealous). And the CMs were all walking examples of good show and courtesy. This was before I hired into the DLR, and after a while with the company, I can't help but wonder whether or not we could replace some of our CMs with Tokyo's :twisted: .
