Kamata Rocks

Konbanwa!

So...we didn't go to Tsukiji because it rained nearly ALL DAY. Instead, Brittney and I slept in and decided to go explore Kamata. Kamata, it turns out, is a lot bigger than I originally thought and has TONS of good shopping and restaurants. We discovered a 4 story 100 yen store and bought some things for the apartment (drying rack, some shelving stuff etc.). We had an early lunch at a Sushi Bar! Sushi tastes different here in Japan...I don't know if it is BETTER than in the states, but it is certainly different. We learned all about the fish industry from a documentary on the plane over, so don't worry mom: the fish is all quick frozen and super fresh! The one bad thing about lunch was that the miso soup I had had beef AND chicken in it, and I even ate some chicken on accident :( I was sad, but I suppose it is my own fault for being vegetarian in Japan. I had MUCH better luck with dinner--a salad and some shrimp fried rice, muy bien! The apartment has just about everything we need now (except a dehumidifyer!!) and we are MUCH more comfortable! Camp Starts tomorrow (yay!) and HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DADDY!!!

P.S. I am feeling a bit homesick right now...so I got a plant to distract me. I'll post pictures of it later :)
