When we were in Okinawa, you may remember, we had to got through this "thermal scanning" thing. Well, this time we had to do it at 8:00 in the morning. Yay.
So, we managed to pull ourselves together for something that only took about 2 minutes at the most. After that, we got breakfast, then we were in Muroran by about 10-11 AM.
There were people from the town there that were playing drums and things like that when we arrived at the port. Lucky us, it was raining. Muroran is the port for Sapporo (where they make the beer), but we decided to just walk around.
They had a great bus system, which had 5 different stops throughout the town. We ended up walking around the first four. All the time looking for some stupid YAKITORI!!!
We had a paper from the ship that said that Muroran is Japans "Yakitori capital", but I guess since it was Saturday, the shops were all closed down. (BTW, yakitori is like chicken skewers) We walked around EVERYWHERE looking for a place that had it, but we couldn't find any...
By then my grandpa was getting really tired, so we went back. we went over this amazing bridge on our way back to the ship. I got off at the ship, but my grandparents went through to the first stop to get booze (TREND AGAIN).
As we were leaving Muroran, there were a group of children that were dancing to Japanese music for us. I don't think I've ever seen my grandma so into music/dancing before.
Japan was my favorite place that we visited in the whole trip. The people were all extremely nice, and the cities were beautiful.
