Last day
My last actual full day in Japan is tomorrow.
Today I went into Kokura again for the second time and my final train ride. I went to Riverwalk and that crazy strip mall place. In a music store I met a nice gaijin from Virginia named Eddie. We talked about music theory for a bit, and he suggested a music store where I might be able to find a cello. I found the store, but they had no cellos. Oh well.
At Riverwalk I finished up my shopping for people.
Tonight we had sushi for dinner at the kind of place with the conveyor belt. Is it a measure of convenience or cheapness to have the belt move as slowly as it does? The sushi was good though.
Tomorrow I plan on taking a final bikeventure around Yukuhashi and buying a few drinks such as melon cream soda to take back. If there was one Japanese drink I could make readily availible in the US, it would be that.
The day after tomorrow I have a really killer travel day. I go from Kitakyushu airport to Haneda, then on a bus to Narita, from Narita to San Franciso and finally to Denver. I arrive at the same time on the same day that I leave. Confusing.

Hello, I have just now come across this website while browsing around the Internet as I’m seeking some material on electric cellos!. It’s a good blog so I have bookmarked your site and I will revisit another day to have a proper browse when I’m more free.
