Long Weekend (2004-09-21)
Three people enjoying a game of croquet in one of the parks we cycle past
Ready to make that shot
A spooky statue on our cycle route. Someone has tied a bandana thing on its head with the word "Matsuri" (Festival) on it. May be that person tries to lighten its creepiness with the bandana, but the head's not the problem, it's the bleeding mouth that gives you the creeps
We had dinner with Fung and his friends in this izakaya
One of the many Japanese style decorations in the restaurant
This one is by the cashier just inside the entrance
Individual shoe cupboards for customers to store their shoes
The keys for the shoe cupboards are big metal plates like this one
Waitresses take orders kneeling down
Fung's mom apparently likes Japanese pickled vegetables
Chicken and rice soup
Grilled squid
This is our table/room
I urged Fung's mother to try the delicious Japanese peaches while they're still in season and she bought some at this fruit shop after dinner
Melons in the fruit shop
Beautiful nashi pears
First time I saw such odd-looking fruits. The owner held the paper that features them when he saw me take their picture
We bought our crepes at this crepe shop
This woman is making our crepes
She folds a filled crepe
Things we asked Fung to buy for us in Sydney: Panadol and cookies
Basket for my bike
