Since the China students came to Japan for the last week we went with them to an out of the way part of Tokyo where the old architecture still stands. There, we visited a Buddhist temple and got to see the inside of a traditional Japanese-style house.
Afterwards we went to the Sunshine city building in Ikebukuro for dinner and desert. They had the single oddest ice cream shop that I have ever heard of. Its decorations and the such were somewhat ordinary, but the flavors were not. Images start normally, then.....
That's right. Viper. They had ice cream made out of viper.
Anyways, Next day, we had class and discussed things about Japanese culture in light of the last day's visits and such. Afterwards, we, in our small groups, took the China students on a short trip to various locations around Tokyo (each group did one location). My group brought our China students to Ginza and gave them a little history lesson and discussed cultural observations while viewing various venues such as t Itoya and Mitsukoshi stores. This post now concludes.

Soooo, What do Viper and Charcoal taste like? I assume one would eat them in that order.
ReplyDeleteDon't know about charcoal, but viper was actually pretty good, it had an odd (but not bad) aftertaste though.
ReplyDeletegah, trying to read those descriptions... reminding me the hell I'm gonna face with my kanji class. Did you try black sesame seed ice cream yet?
ReplyDeleteDidn't see any of that there. A friend tried a cup of ice cream with the flavor label "old taste." The first thing he said when he tried it was, "I feel like I've had this ice cream before." So Old Taste ice cream tastes like nostalgia.
