      @dwarf said in its time to pick on Cloud !!! 😜:

      spends every day in america drinking sake, spends every day in japan drinking beer

      The sake shop next to my in-laws has shut down 😿 🍶 :crying_face:

      But they did have some for me. I am deciding if I will take it home or drink it here. Since these are small 330ml bottles, I think they would survive the flight.

            So @dwarf, I ordered a sake on the rocks. It was not worth the price tag. But then I am near a bar district before they all open. So honestly not surprised. I switched to beer after that. Cheaper for more.

              Saw this contrast on the train earlier. The tall woman in purple and the short woman in front of her. Looked both to be in their 20’s.

                  guessing you got the Umeshu ? 6 bux a glass is pretty steep, since we can score a liter an’ a half for around that on sale 😜 prolly need to find the sake version of a beer-taster bar here in the states. some place that has bottles of hundreds different flavors to try 'n enjoy 🙂

                  didja take the girls out to one of those mondo ramen restraunts yet ?

                    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 really surprised companies don’t employ native-english speakers to unscramble their Engrish…
