Sushi!
Today we went to a conveyor-belt sushi bar in Kyoto after a train trip to Osaka to see "Me and My Girl" by the all-girl Takarazuka Revue. They are very famous in Japan and if you've never heard of them, look them up. It was an excellent show. I've never been to one of these conveyor-belt sushi places before, but I've heard about them. Tom's trying to expand my culinary horizons, and I like some sushi - it's just that I'd take cooked shrimp over raw shrimp on just about any day. In fact, I was glad to see the some of the shrimp were actually cooked, so I had one of those plates. Hidden under the shrimp was a bit of wasabi sauce, which I really like to say. Say it a few times; "Wasabi... wasabi... wasabi". Fun, isn't it?

If you look at the conveyor belt at the far right, there is a plate of sushi that looks like meat with an edge of fat. I thought it was duck at first, but that's actually smoked horse meat. Player that he is, James said he wanted a taste of the ponies while he is here in Japan, but something got lost in translation. Beware of literal renditions of your words!

I love sushi! I wish I were there.
