That giant fish is a real fish. I'm not sure what kind of fish it is, but it would make sense if it was a blue-fin tuna. This was taken at the Kinki University fish observation farms.

On the boat, zooming out to the fish nets. In the background are the wooden planks with the blue automatic fish feeders I mentioned.

Filming the blue fin tuna fish in their large circular pen!

And looked! Evidence I touched a real fish! This is not tuna, this is tuna food.

Yum, saith the fish.

The Warship Ertugrul Memorial Monument.

Taken from the top of the lighthouse. What a beautiful sea!

A group pic with the Japanese boys as well.

This is on the lane leading to the lighthouse. It was a gorgeous day. =)

Our lunch. For some reason, the shrimp in these pictures were not set up as my shrimp were. These are hidden. Mine were honest to goodness, just put down shrimp with eyeballs and everything!

After cooking a bit.

Whaaaat?!  ; )

The little tub where you soak your suit and put your shoes on.

Us heading off into the water.

This is at Mr. Yamamoto's house. This is a little family shrine he has in front of his home.

Inside the house, looking around.

Yamamoto sensei showed us the windows, which were made so ingeniously I thought they could be origami.

Me with a sword. The sword is pointed at the camera. You'll have to click to see it.

The Japanese boys riding home on their bikes.

At the sushi bar--the revolving belts.

Caviar sushi on a red plate? 200 yen.

Another picture of the sushi bar.

And another.
