Tonight Sharron and I decided to be adventurous and head out to a Japanese Gyoza restaurant for dinner. The catch is that it’s in Tachikawa, which is a good 7 stop train ride away from Fussa (where the base is). So, we parked at the Seiyu department store, that validates with a Starbucks purchase, and headed off on the train (yay, we remembered how!). We arrived in Tachikawa with no problems and aside from a light Seattle-ish rain had a pleasant walk to the restuarant. When we arrived at the restaurant however, we found it to be closed for Golden Week. :-\ Golden Week is a 10 day holiday in Japan that’s like spring break. However, instead of being only for students, it’s for everybody. I want an American Golden Week! In Japan though, I hate it. Many places are closed and it just reminds me that we don’t get to enjoy a free holiday for 10 days. :-(
We headed home, had some pizza and watched Sex and the City. :-)
