So carrying on from where our brave protagonist left off, Alex was hungry for some dinner (yes it is third person perspective now) So the group and I (back to a narrative) decided to grab some munchies. Me and Keith throw on some clothes and waited for the girls, who I thought were going to be dressed to the nines. They just threw a dress and some make up on. The plan that night? Eat and Drink, duh.
We did a little hunting and found an Izakaya again.
Like the karaoke pictures, from one of the earlier posts, the chronological posting of pictures will show some wicked dive into drunken madness.
Beer and Food!
Empty Mugs
Rumiko's first experience with whiskey
I am deadly handsome
Then somehow after drinking and eating a bunch and waiting a really long time at this crappy Izakaya (food was good service was sub par) we somehow ended back at our Ryokan and more drinking ensued. The following was done:
Rock Climbing
Arm Wrestling
Beer Drinking
There was an episode involving an Onsen where we tried to change the hot water into cold water. We all tried to get in but only got parts of our bodies in. We thought that was no fun so we started a soap fight and hilarity ensued. Unfortunately it was one of those spur the moment things and no pictures resulted. Needless to say, everyone was pretty tired after the soap fight so it was time to crash. The next morning we actually did things! First stop, the shores of Irozaki.
Our mighty vessel
MONKEY! Side note, people bought yams to through at the island, from the boat, to lure monkeys into the spot light. Except most people who bought them had the worst throwing arm ever, so most of the yams went into the ocean. The best part was when the monkey excursion was over, people with left over yams just threw them into open water, hoping monkeys would swim for the yams
Next we went to an Aquarium. We had ice cream again. Steph got the Brown Algae which wasn't too bad. I had the Arbutus. It tasted like absolutely nothing. Much like Keith's mysterious flavor in Okinawa. The aquarium was pretty rad, much like all aquariums.
So the ultimate twist of the day comes form in a random cafeteria of this aquarium. Instead of selling usual Japanese cafeteria stuff like Tonkatsu-don or similar I had this for lunch.
Sushi Rice. And Steph has that shell, hopefully still with a piece of meat inside it. So the food over all was wicked, this is what everyone else had
Delicious. After chowing down, we decided to finish off our trip at the beach. Shriahama beach in Shimoda to be exact.
Between falling asleep and people taking pictures of me falling asleep, we killed a good couple hours. We grabbed dinner at a local resturant where I order some seafood thing, but got hamburger rice instead, delicious. We headed back to Atami where Keith and I got home successfully via train. And Steph and Rumiko got stuck in Nagoya again. You will have to see Steph for that story, I was asleep in my Atsugian bed when her events were unfolding.
Stay tuned for more , alot more
