We All Grew Up (2005-12-11)

One of KL's friend from his high school era came to Tokyo for some sightseeing in October.  We met up for lunch just before they had to board a plane back to their home in Hong Kong.

I had never met this friend of his but heard lots about him.  As usual, his face turned out to be nothing like what I had imagined it would look like.  His wife and their two-year-old daughter also came and the family spent time visiting various touristy spots including Tokyo Disneyland. 

Seeing KL's friend push their little girl in a stroller reminds me of my brother and his wife visiting us with their two-yr-old whom they also pushed around in a pram in 2001.  Now my neice is in primary school, hardly a baby anymore, and you'd have a tough time coaxing her into a pram. 

One minute you are moseying along with pals in high school, and next minute your pals have kids of their own.  It is a very scary fact of life (the fast growing up part, not the kid part).
