Headed to Takehito's for this lesson like always and then back home. Ate some sushi for lunch and then we all headed out to The National Theater in Tokyo for Kabuki. Kabuki is considered a intangible cultural heritage and is a form of play that originated in Japan about 400 years ago. The story was about a guy who saved a magical fox and the fox took the form of a girl who he married and had a son with. After being married for 5 years to the fox the real girl that he was supposed to marry came and then he found out that the girl he was married to was actually a magical fox. I guess it's pretty common here. It was pretty cool and probably the closest thing we have to it in the US would be opera.
After Kabuki I stopped home, changed, and headed out to Shinagawa for a work party. It was at a Hotel there and there was close to 800 people there. They had all you can drink and all you can eat. The CEO was there and he gave a little speech. There were some people who did a musical performance and they had prizes.
