        Once it was after 7 I went over to Golden Gai as some places there started to open by then.

        I ended up at a bar called Kangaroo.

          Also tried this single grain whiskey. But again confirmed that I am not a whiskey guy

            Public bathroom right by Golden Gai

            I should have taken a wide shot. But the urinals were open to the sidewalk with just a low wall between it and them.

              I think I prefer the pictures of the drinks, rather than small human bathrooms, but seeing the Golden Gai is cool.

                I would have taken more pictures but a lot of Golden Gai has no picture signs.

                  Friday was a slow day. Took the family to Ōmiya, the closest large station, to do a little shopping and visited a cat cafe.

                  Didn’t do any drinking after not getting home until almost midnight after visiting Golde Gai.

                    Heavy rain today, so we stayed around the house. During a break in the rain we walked to McDonald’s for a simple lunch.

                            I assume it is the Japanese version of wine in a box

                                    Shit, this happened the same day I was there, I had no idea.

                                    Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Prologue debuted in Japan on July 14 at the Gundam Factory Yokohama (the site of the life-size moving Gundam statue), the life-size Gundam Unicorn statue in Tokyo’s Odaiba
