Nameko's First Trip Overseas

Fri. Oct. 23, 2012

From Tokyo Station Nameko boards the Narita Express.

And enjoys salmon, salmon roe and crab chirashi zushi and soy milk annin dofu (almond jello) for lunch...

 ...while enjoying the view

In about an hour, he arrives at Narita Airport--already decorated for Christmas.
 

After a couple of hours of waiting, Nameko finally spots the plane!
Nameko checks out the view from the plane window before taking his seat and making himself comfortable for the long flight.

Nameko doesn't want become Withered...
...so he enjoys a specially requested low-salt in-flight meal (dinner) of salmon with rice and vegetables, herb-crusted chicken salad and fruits.

Snack: sandwiches (asparagus, and tomato & cucumber)
Even though he already got a low-salt snack, the nice flight attendant gave him an extra (regular snack) sandwich and cookies! ^_^
For breakfast it's a kabocha pumpkin puree with chicken and vegetables (looks kind of funny but tastes good!), and fruits.
As the flight comes near to the end, Nameko enjoys a last view from above the clouds.
