Japan New Year's Wrist Shot

Went over to my Fiance's parents house to do the traditional Japanese New Year's Osechi Ryori food. Wrist shot of me ( with LE Japan TOG) her Dad (silver dial DJ) my best friend (his 5513 Sub) and my Girlfriend (with her mid size YM).

Cheers all and Happy New Year from Japan.

Have you ever eaten Osechi Ryori? Cast characters in The Walking Dead would not eat that stuff. That is all I am going to say. It is awful. I literally nearly vomited 3 or 4 times over the course of the two days of eating. Idescribable horrors for the Western palate.



The worse was the mabushi poisoneouse snake sake with the snake still inside. You could feel the snakes scales in your mouth as you drank it.

Happy new year Tom. 明けましておめでとうございます. Hope you had a good one with the family, Joe and Travis.

Too bad, I wasn't still in Fukuoka - I love the osechi ryori. All the best in 2013.

It must be so terrible that pictures would be instantly deleted?

What an odd thing to say. No more or less than anyone else from different countries.
