We had lunch in the city with our friends. Surprisingly the city was very quiet.
Italian was our choice, and their meatballs were really good, while the pizza was also good (but not the best).
Needed to eat soba, buckwheat, noodles to welcome a new year for dinner
As I am home more often, we go out more often, yet we both like eating home.
Oh plus there was a birthday and banana cream pie was b-day cake this year.
Warm enogh to enjoy being outside right before Xmas.
This year's tree seemed a bit smaller than usual.
Lunch at our favorite Chinese place next to the Rockefeller center.
The show windows at department-store are beautifully decorated. This was my favorite one.
Dozen of bagels to home at E-ss-a bagel, our favorite bagel store in the city.
Four nights were perfect for us. Last day at the pool before catching an evening flight. Better than expected in many ways.
Also this resort has the biggest casino in Caribbean area. I won big last night, still small amount, for us.
They also has water fountain shows at night
This resort has ten plus pools. Changed the location today to see other part of the resort.
They also has one for turtles and sharks.
A nice ocean view room at high up. Sunrise was gorgeous.
The beach is very calm and the white sand is filled as far as I can see.
This is what I needed.
After finishing multi year project in Amsterdam, we are celebrating an early holiday vaccine in Bahamas.
Nice upgrade at both on the flight and at the hotel. Still off season and not so many travellers.
Drink and some dishes at the lounge, and hotel Breakfast at the main restaurant.
Nice but I miss home...
Ginkgo tree is over 600 years old. Beautifully colored for the season.
Fall is also famous for food, so something sweet and savory.
I can't emphasis enough the location of our apartment in Shinjuku.
A variety of restaurants less than five minutes walk is just amazing. Now we don't need to go to Ogikubo any more in my opinion.
Back in Amsterdam and staying at a nicer hotel for the weekend. I went already to the gym this morning so it is ok to have this much, I guess.
We did not stay at this room but we were able to take some benefits coming with it.
Another suite room in Shinjuku. Smaller but still really nice room.
Outside was also gorgeous this afternoon. Strolling the area from West to East till coming back to the apartment
So many options to eat out, but still eat home one meal per day to be a bit healthier.
American breakfast in Japanese style. Eggs here are so good and you don't need anything else.
One of the things I like when I stay at a nice hotel is breakfast, especially at this level of quality.
The egg was one of the best I have had.
15 minutes walk from the apartment but it feels in a different city.
Park Hyatt Tokyo which I wanted to stay always. Enjoy 24 hours of dream time.
Lunch at a Taiwan restaurant in Monzen -cho. We really wanted to come to this chicken place just around corner from the apartment.
