... and headed out the backside of the mall to discover a jazz festival! Though the singer we heard was pretty good, the set in itself was a little bland and we lost interest.
Though we had hoped to go the zoo, we missed the last bus out there, so we headed back to the hotel in defeat. After a few hours recharching and napping, we decided to strike out and the beer festival we had heard so much about. We found it ...

... been to. Unlike our small hotel showers, however, this bath had a sauna. I've been to several saunas, especially when I was Sweden. I enjoy them usually, but this bad boy was in a league of its own. The thermometer on the inside ready 90 degrees. Celsius. That's a balmy 195+ degrees Fahrenheit.

On decouvre aussi les joies du cyber cafe a la japonnaise : enormes centres ouvert 24h/24 ou l'on peut venir quelques heures se reposer dans des petits boxs, boissons, soupes, glaces a volonte. Y'a meme des douches !

... the facility with exhibits on how beer is brewed, what kind of ingredients are used, and a full view of both the canning and bottling production lines. Needless to say, this was very impressive. The production technology at work here is no doubt world-class. The brewery pumps out around 500 bottles of beer per minute -- all to required quality specifications. There is so much beer in storage that ...

We were going no where fast... so I made an executive decision and said NIH (Meaning 2) about the bowls of stuff, and she left. We weren't sure if we were getting 2 of the sets of 5 bowls, or 2 platters of sushi. It was very exciting and scary... We ended up with 2 orders of their bowl specials, and split it among the three of us...And ...
