We hadn't taken him to a restaurant at all since he was born last December. It was a first for all of us. Had he not drank his share of bottled milk, we wouldn't have finished, let alone, enjoyed a bit of lunch in the Chinese restaurant that we went to. It seems like we prefer to sit on the floor with a low table, rather than sit in chairs at a booth or a table. I haven't gotten to the point where I'm comfortable letting him drink water from the restaurant or even give him a sip of a watered down soup. I don't know where the drinking water is from and I don't know where the vegetable are bought from. They could be from the radiation-infested Touhoku area of Japan.
The stay at the hotel was nice. It wasn't extravagant or luxurious by far, but it was still nice because of the friendly support of the staff. My husband and I enjoyed 2 rounds of relaxing body massage. And we relaxed in the huge hot spring bath, too.
On the way back in the car, Shosei was howling and crying because....I don't really know why....but it could have been because he was bored sitting in the car for 2 hours, or because he had pooped a little(but I couldn't see it at the time because it was dead center, rather than near the folds of the diaper).
I was able to sidetrack his mood with his favorite book and some crackers with apple juice.
I wouldn't mind going to the mountains next time. The next trip to the beach will be saved until next year.
