Our first
visit was to Matsue Castle |
||||
 |
||||
The view

 |

Spaghetti
in the sky - common in Japan |
||||
 |
||||
Very
close to the castle is the Buke-Yashiki former Samurai House |
||||
 |
||||
 |
||||
 |
||||
Another
day, another farewell ceremony. They drummed for us... |
||||
 |
||||
...and
then played "The Star-Spangled Banner", followed by "Y-M-C-A"! |
||||
"Chocolate
Madness", served back on board. The head chef insisted that we consume plenty. Bruce was in no mood to argue with him. |
