Our family has been in Japan now for over a week. We are staying in a cabin by the beach. In a foreign country, even the mundane can be an adventure. A couple of days ago we took my parent's car and drove to McDonalds and then went shopping. Gary was curious about the different items in the grocery store and wanted to buy and try new things. The fish and seafood especially is abundant and resonably priced. We bought some salmon and had my dad grill it, it was delicious!
Yesterday I had a real treat for lunch. My family is friends with a woman who runs the Japanese verison of a Bed and Breakfast. She serves a very nice traditional Japanese style lunch. It is a small place that maybe seats 20 people at a time, a local word-of-mouth kind of place. She served us wonderful sashimi and fried fish. Gary said the look on my face was the same for him if we were at Old Country Buffet!

Later in the day we took kids to a park the had a big white bouncing thing and slides with rollers (kind of like you see on conveyor belts). It had a look-out tower where you could see the ocean on one side and the city and mountains on the other. The kids really enjoyed it. One of the pictures above is the view from the B & B.
