Today was the first day that I slept in past the blazing 4am
sun! It felt great to sleep in. We started the day with some canned Boss black
coffee (sooo good). Then we walked from
her house to the subway.
Being in Yokosuka with Teresa helped me slow things down a
little bit. I was able to chill and enjoy things a little more; aka walking
slowly to the subway instead of rushing to keep up with our professor.

One cool thing I discovered is the meaning of the yellow
strips of dots on all the sidewalks and subway walkways. Its for the visually
impaired. They use these dots to guide them along the street and to know where
the platform for the subway ends. There is also a sound at the street crossing
when its safe to walk. And there are sounds of birds chirping that guide people
throughout the subway station.
Tonight, they took me to a place called The Lockup. They “arrest”
you and then take you to a cell to dine. Everything is themed. Then when you’re
almost done eating, the “show” begins. The “prisoners” are let loose and raid
the jail. They are all dressed up in costumes, one of which reminded me of a
hollow from the anime Bleach. This made it a lot of fun as they try to scare you
by opening your cell and jumping on top of your cell with no roof. Then we
played darts and did one round of karaoke.
Quirky advertisement for the day
