Horse Sashimi @ SHIBA

I'll keep this one short as the battery on my keitai is running low...

What? Cam... Short??? Impossible!!!

We walked to Nishi Honganji Temple, then another 30minutes to Sanjugendo Temple which houses 1001 buddha statues each representing 1000 arms... each arm representing 35 worlds... I wanted to bring Mia here as I have come many times with friends. It IS impressive.

Then we walked another hour to the Gion area looking for a bar... finally we found Shiba near the Kamogawara River. So now we are enjoying great conversation with the owner who was the 1971 Japan Grand Prix F3 Champion! Very cool... he has also been running this tiny candlelit restaurant for 40 years and has changed almost nothing in that time!

So we are having horse sashimi (raw horse), okonomiyake, lamb shabushabu and probably whale tongue! It is all delicious! Sea Shepherd eat your fucking hearts out!

Kampai!

I love you!
