Day 4 Daruma and sushi

By Alex:

By the train we went to Daruma shop. We didn’t make the Daruma, but we painted his face. The owner of the shop did a very good job of explaining how to make Daruma. Even thought I am not very artistic I still had very good time.

Following our experience at the Daruma shop, we had another great experience. We took a train to Kazukabe and ate a place called Kaiten Sushi. Here sushi, juice and dessert are served on a conveyer belt, which loops around the restaurant. When you want something, you can take whatever plate you like. You also have the luxury of special ordering items by using a small computer touchpad that sends a small train to your table, which delivers your food. You pay for how many plates you eat. There was a special going on and each plate was about 93 yen. Some plates (desserts and noodle soup) are more expensive.

Conveyor-belt sushi. You pick a plate of sushi from the conveyor (behind Matteen), and later are charged for the plates you ate!
