6/22/2015 Dad, castle, Kamaboko, American club

UThe kids were soooo happy.  Daddy arrived right when they woke up.


Now we just need to keep him awake till bedtime.

We did a walk around Odawara castle.  (I say this so casually - it involved a walk to the train and several switches.)


We met up with Caitlin, Kyle and their mom.  She had arranged another neat do it yourself factory tour. This one was to make Kamaboko.  For those who don't know - this is the semi circle with pink rim that is often found in bowls of stuff.

These were professionally made.  Ours weren't fancy - in fact they looked gray.


Demoing technique.

We also made some on sticks that were grilled that we could eat right away.  The logs we shipped home.


We spent the night at the American Club, so that we could get up before dawn to go to the fish market.  (Turned out it was closed, so we slept in.)

Branwen's friend Naomi and her dad joined us for dinner and some playtime in the gym.

We had the "Fitness Room ".

Our special squirt water and blow your butt dry toilet also opened the lid every time you walked into the room.
