Duggars do Asia part 1: Recap

 Jessa and Jinger start off with packing. They have been packers for the past 6 years. On their list for this trip, they need to pack 250 pairs of clothes, 50 shoes, 170 diapers and a lot of snacks to last them a month. They needed to get a box truck to fit the luggage to their airport. The family checked in twenty-nine suitcases and ten carry ons for the plane. The family flew over 7,000 miles in 48 hours with a stop in Chicago. The family noticed many differences between Japan and America when it came to the toilets.
The family settled in for the night and woke up the next morning ready for new experiences. During breakfast, Jordyn was found to be a adventurous eater while her mother enjoyed the seaweed. At the end of the meal,  Michelle was surprise with a birthday cake which was made with green tea. On the first day, Jim Bob and Michelle exchanged 300 US dollars for 22,000 Japanese yen, within the day the family spent about 33 dollars (USA) on a dollar store.
The second day of their trip, the older girls go to find kimonos for the youngest daughters. Jim Bob felt comfortable allowing the girls venture in Tokyo alone. Josh and Anna are going for a date and so Jim Bob and Michelle take care of their grandkids. Josh and Anna decided that they want to get their picture drawn but their date gets cut short thanks to the family getting theirs done too.
The family decides to get Rickshaws for a ride thou the city. They get into teams and buy some fish for sushi. Jim Bob picks girls for his team because he knows that they love to shop however he ends up losing and has to eat Josie's sushi creation. The family heads to a Sushi academy to learn how to make it.  Jana did not know if Josie was making or playing with her food. Jim Bob decides to eat his daughter's sushi but not before offering to share. He doesn't think that sushi will become a Duggar favorite.













Trivia will be coming soon!
