Sushi!

So, of course, being in Japan we have to try the best of the best sushi. Our first weekend here, we were introduced by friends to Sushiro. Sushiro is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, and the food is to die for! It is here that I tried sushi for the very first time ever, and I'm glad I held out for this place! I was not disappointed! We also tried green tea ice cream and wasabi ice cream. Very oishii!

The first time we hit the town, we learned very quickly that Japan is big on music - good music. Jazz and big band are all the rage here, and you hear it everywhere; it's fabulous!! You'll also often see statues of people playing the saxophone and other music related art. Even the storm drains in the streets are decorated with trumpets!

One thing that really caught our attention were the arcades along the streets. They are large and VERY noisy, but they have wild, interesting games. We found a game that's just like Guitar Hero, but you play taiko drums instead!
