From Bachan's 82nd B-day trip.
[Part one was here, in case you missed it.]

God bless Bachan and her thrifty and thoughtful ways, but the prospect of traveling afar only to once again eat the exact same bento she always makes... um... not so much.

Sandy prepares to somehow run us aground, despite being in a museum.
2 out of 3 Japanese relatives agree, these rock.
Sometimes, my wife, she... displeases me.
