Ramen!

School's still been pretty chill - had my first Medical Imaging Seminar class which was cool. We have like an hour off for lunch each day, and we've gone to some nearby noodle houses so far. There's an Udon place, and a RAMEN place. Now this is not the ordinary ramen that most college students think of. This is truly legit. It was pretty dang oishii (delicious) and was only like $5 too.


Mmmmmm.


Wei with his bowl.


Itadakimasu! (Thank you for the meal)

Here are some other pictures from around the center.


A fountain in the river, with the sakura blossoms.




Oooh, a boat!


Some great vending machines in this country.


Pachinko casinos are everywhere. It's kinda like a slot machine, but you watch little metal spheres fall down and you win/lose money depending on where they land. Looks the guy to my right must have won something.


Tons of anime.


Lots of video games.


And your buddy Ronald even speaks Japanese.

See more random pictures!

Things have been pretty chill so far, finally got myself a cell phone. By the way, you can e-mail my cell phone for free at: dcruz@k.vodafone.ne.jp !
