Sushi, 100 yen stores and japanese Italian food...

Yowza!!! Today was a dining experience to say the least. Today I ran my butt off at the gym on base, and I will have to pay for it tomorrow- sore muscles. So since I started the day off so well, I think that I should be entitled to stuffing my face, right? So after John got done with school for the day, we drove to a favorite Sushi place. It's also really popular with the Yokosukans. The place is set up with individual booths and a conveyor belt that runs through the entire restaurant. Then when you are seated, all you have to do is pick up whatever looks interesting as long as it isn't someone's special order. I decided to try all kinds of things. Tuna, Salmon, shrimp, also these salmon, salmon eggs and cucumber sushi which was quite good. There were also a variety of different deserts that went around the conveyor belt and the one that I picked up resembled large french fries covered in honey. And in fact, I think that's what they were. And they weren't too bad either.

For dinner we went to the Sayizaria which is a Japanese Italian food restaurant. Expecting pizza you get pizza with octopus on it. Or Spaghetti with a raw egg over the top. YESS. I didn't try any of those considering that I had been adventurous enough for one day. Stuck with the cheese pizza.

We also went to a 100 yen store which is like a japanese dollar store. they are amazing with anything that you could think of there.

I'd also like to point out that everyone in Japan rides to cutest little bicycles ever. They all have the basket in the front and all the girls look so pretty in them especially when their outfits coordinate with the colors of their bikes. Those Japanese girls strike again!! So Fashionable. Also, the umbrella is also another accessory that the japanese carry rain or shine. It could be a non-rainy overcast day and the women will have their umbrellas out. Very strange.

Tomorrow Calidghe and I will be going to Nagoya Castle and also going to a Cloisonné workshop in Nagoya City so I'll have plenty of pictures of the castle and trip in the next few days.
