Kenn rocked it Saturday night! It was a blast and his dj skills were in full effect. A bunch of our friends and even my coworker and his sister came out (they live 45 minutes away and drove in!). People were dancing, the owner absolutely loved Kenn's music and asked him if he wanted his own night. Not sure yet if we'll make it a weekly regular but he'll definitely be back.

Summary of the night: great music, lots of drinks, our friend got a cute guy's number, later I had to take her home because she had a little too much, the night ended up with 4 of us left and of course we went for ramen. Here's an amusing story that I think is a testament to Kenn's skills: guy comes over to our table, chats with us, flirts with me (apparently doesn't notice my rings), I entertain myself by asking him what he thinks of the dj, he says the dj is awesome and is playing some really good house, electro and great mash-ups. (I think hmmm, this guys actually knows what he's talking about) I say "good, glad you think so because he's my husband". Anyway, you had to be there, it was funny. Turns out the guy's a house head, former raver back in the day in Seattle. Obviously good taste in music and women. haha. This guy exchanged info with Kenn (he's starting some nightlife website in Japan) and may hook up Kenn with another dj gig an another bar in Roppongi too! Go superstar DJ Kula!

The rest of the weekend: Saturday day we walked around the Asakusa area. Here's Kenn trying wasabi ice cream, sounds weird but it was actually really good!
We took a tour boat down the Sumida river which took us to Hama Rikyu Park. Never made it to Imperial Palace Gardens (Amy made it on Sunday) but walked around Ginza and Tokyo Midtown. Sunday Kenn and I slept and relaxed, had dinner with Amy in Roppongi Hills. Monday Amy was off to Kyoto and Kenn and I went to Yokohama - Japan's second largest city and has a port and a Chinatown. (Livia, we never made it to the Ramen museum though - next time!) Pic of us on the Cosmo Clock (giant ferris wheel):
