Curry House CoCo Ichibanya’s katsu curry
Even though we had a CoCo Ichi near us when we lived in Tokyo in 2009 and 2010, I never tried the place until I went back in 2013 (pictured above).
I love katsu (カツ). I love curry (カレー). Someone put them together once upon a time as katsu curry.
Someone thought that adding meatloaf (ミートローフ) and cheese (チーズ) to this combination would also be a good idea (below). I passed on that concept.

Daishoin steps in the rain (Miyajima, Japan)

Sometimes, when you are navigating slippery, rocky steps in the rain, you need someone to watch out for you.
Koyasan’s famous Japanese cemetery
One of my favorite places on this earth is this cemetery in the mountains of Japan. I’m dying to return.
History lesson in Toyota Museum (Nagoya, Japan)
These types of museums aren’t normally my thing, but when you don’t have any plans on a brutally hot and humid summer day in Nagoya this is a decent place to be. Unlike the museums I visited on this same trip in Korea, this one had air conditioning. I had no desire to leave.
Part of this museum deals with Toyota’s first business (when they were known as Toyoda), the mechanical loom. The rest is, of course, about the automobiles and includes many early models. Japanese models/tour guides are happy to tell you more than you’d like to know about the cars. I don’t know if the models speak English, but most of the displays are in (broken) English as well as Japanese.
