And one more thing...
Turns out I was allergic to my sunblock - it made my chest all red and blotchy and covered with teeny bubble-like blisters. So I threw it away. Which means that my chest is now nicely lobster-like in color, as yesterday in Tsumage was SUNNYSUNNYSUNNY. I borrowed Rachel's sunblock today, and it seems I am not allergic to it, and the sunburn is fading a wee bit, but I fear I look like a red traffic light from a distance.
And, so Rachel doesn't yell at me for not talking about food: today for lunch we dropped into a restaurant in Nagoya that had tempura on its menu, and what we ended up with was a classic Japanese dish that Rachel says is sort of hard to find: you get a bowl of rice with nori and something else (we picked salmon), and a small container of tea. You pour the tea over the rice, and eat it that way. It was also accompanied by some of the best tempura we've had yet.

I think the rice dish is called ochazuke, and I thought you could get it at our favorite place, Tachibana, but they don't list it in their online menu. Oh well ... your coming to Washington for ochazuke is almost as extravagantly silly as going all the way to Japan for it ... .
Wow, you're really going through the wars with health stuff on this trip! How's the ankle?
