Ramen and electric town

Mmmm dinner last night. Katsu, another feast.




Unfortunately the ramifications this morning were more than at least one of my senses could bear





Always a great start to the day.
Now the reason we are really in japan is this-





Oh such delicious ramen, and right across the road! I could write a whole page on this ramen. And they are open late - real late in case I get a 25:00 o'clock ramen craving. I have a sneaky suspicion this might just happen before I head back to Sydney. Last time in japan I did beer and sushi at the fishmarkets for 6 am breaky. Beer and ramen at 25:00 o'clock seems like the next logical goal in my extra curricular culinary oddesy of japan


After this I split and jumped a train into electric town.



..I noticed all the drivers must physically acknowledg every signal light the moment they see it. Most raise their hand, some have a little point, but some of the younger drivers Have incorpprated a bit flair making it a kind of salute. I watched intenty during the 40 minute train ride into town.

Electric town. Interesting g place. Not as good as it used to be. Kind of turned a bit touristy but I had a good search around none the less. Lots of electronics, toys, suspicious comics and figurines and strangely lots of cafe's with scantily dressed "maids".







That's all from me. Got a fun day with joss tomorrow.
Oh yes, dinner tonight.
