Sunday, April 10th: Ocean sized Sushi

Jeff and Dan are taking turns staying with Jonathan in the room, he is still sick. Erci is going to get her hair done at Kanatt. I search for the Virgin Megastore but don't find it, though I do discover Pontocho, which is what we expected Gion to look like: tiny winding streets just wide enough for pedestrians with lots of restaurants, clubs, and lanterns. We shop for books on Origami and Kanji and pick up another Dan Brown thriller. Erci and I have lunch at Uoshin (Ocean) on Kawaramachi-dori. They search HUGE portions of sushi. We hook up with Jeff for dinner at another piecemeal Japanese cuisine place like a Tapas place. Very, very good food and saki. We catch a little more of the Yoshitsune story currently airing on BS2 (TV Station) Sunday nights at 8:00pm. I have got to find out how to get this on DVD, it is an awesome series.
