In the previous days, me and my friends planned to visit an air force museum called "Airpark JASDF." Unfortunately, we found that today it was closed. So instead I took it as a day of rest for the most part, doing laundry and getting caught up with homework. Things were rather relaxed as I went to a cafe with my friends we haven't been to, right near the hotel (and it was quite good, too!) After that, my friends left to the aquarium, but I went to my room since I already saw the aquarium. As it turns out, it was way too crowded so David came back and built some of his model kits. While he did that, I continued doing laundry, reviewing my assignments, and trying to talk to my friends back home, which I find to be difficult due to the time zones. Regardless, that night Colby suggests we go to Yakiniku. I never had it before so I decide to go along. I remember seeing a yakiniku place in the arcade, but the sign was raw meat (and not sushi) so I wasn't interested. Turns out, the point of yakiniku is the meat is served raw, but you cook it yourself! I haven't really cooked meat before, so luckily I was with my friends so I didn't give myself salmonella. It turned out to be really good! We had chicken, but also wagyu beef which I haven't had before either. Unfortunately this also meant it cost about 13 thousand yen, but it was worth it for the cool experience - and good food!
