One of my most recent trips turned out to be my most influential. If there is a place to visit to get away from it all, Japan is definitely one of them. Ten days of spending time here made me really appreciate the art, fashion, and culture of the Japanese.

DAY 6. 9:31 PM (Tokyo)

June 22, 2005

Trying to remember what I did today. We ended up in a small town called Gamagori after we left Izu. We visited a big green tea plantation, where we were taught the traditional way to drink green tea. It was prepared in a special way that was apparently the "right way" to drink tea. I kept bumping my head on the ceiling because I was always careless watching where I was going. Plus, the ceiling was incredibly low. Anyways, it took us about 3 hours to get to this place called the Laguna Fish Market... which was pretty crazy for a fish market. It was more like an outlet with it's own giant market on the first floor, and a bunch of shopping centers around it. Then around 6, we had a nice buffet dinner. Pretty tired now, so I'm going to enjoy the Onsen (hot springs).
