We're about to sit down to dinner that my aunt is cooking. While I've enjoyed the food I've eaten thus far in the trip, I miss home cooking. Nothing compares.
Today we got an early start because we wanted to get to the legendary fish market. Unfortunately to see the real action, which is the fish auction, we would need to be there at 7am. We didn't get down there until 8:30am so we missed the auction but still got to see seafood that I've never seen in my life, wriggling and in technicolor. There was tuna so big they were using an axe to skin it and a table saw to cut up pieces. Fresh scallops still in the shell, octopus, eel, and many unidentifiable creatures. After dodging buckets of fishy water being thrown on the ground and carts zooming by, we got some breakfast sushi. Yup, sushi for breakfast. We sat at the bar, pointed to the picture menu and they give it to you as they make it. Amazing. They rolled the seaweed like an ice cream cone.
Dinner break. To be continued after Roppongi tonight. Aaron, I'll see if the gang wants to go the Cavern Club...
