Day Off In Tome, Japan


Today is my day off so I and two others hitched a ride to the Tome Mall area.  We had a good time of window shopping and lunch.  It is fun to see all the different stuff they have in the stores here.

We ate lunch at Marumatsu Japanese Restaurant.  I let the choice up to the other guys and I am glad they picked this restaurant.             

We had my favorite meal here in Japan, Tonkatsu. 












Here is Justin Glick and me enjoying our meal.



We took a cab back to the base.  We had directions give to us by one of our Japanese staff, but, calling the cab company, trying to give directions, etc. was fun. Got back to the base camp and there are only a handful of us here.  All the others are gone for the day sightseeing, or working.

I just got permission to take next Friday off to go to Tokyo to visit with John.  I am planning on leaving right from work on Thursday night and should arrive late in Shinjuku.  I am excited about seeing both John and Tokyo again.
