We walked to a shopping center to look around, pick up a few things. Near Chiyozakicho and Yamashita Koen, right at the bay.

That salmon problem
I rarely eat salmon, for years now, due to an incident involving drying salmon and the smell making me sick. I did make an exception at a pub in Doolin, for exquisite local salmon. And also today. Very fresh, salted and grilled.
The accompaniments are pickled dried takuan (from Hokkaido), age tofu and greens in dashi, pickled gobo and wakame/salted cucumber salad. Rice as always!
More walking around
This first one is the house my aunt used to own, when all three kids lived with her plus the two grandkids, before things broke apart for them. This is just a couple of blocks away from the apt. The blue tarped structure is a new building going up, on what was a parking lot before. The new building is really going to cut off sunlight to the house.

Walk to Yamate Station
The narrow shotengai (shopping street) leading to the train station. A lot of these shops seem pretty run down. 20 minute walk from the apt.
Guitar Hospital
A couple more old houses
Kannai Station
A little trip to the shopping "Marinado" under Kannai train station, and coffee at Excelsior Caffe. 3Coins is a 300¥ store.
Better than Excelsior though, when we got home, "kocha" (British style tea) with anchovy bread from Pompadour bakery.
