A very nice city with a little bit of everything. Smaller than Tokyo and a very comfortable place.
The center was a small network of pedestrian streets that drew a broad cross section of society in the evenings.
Here are the bicycle police impounding illegally parked bikes.
Nearly everything in Japan seemed to have an enormous attention to detail exhibited, down to little things like manhole covers. 
Those Kit Kat’s really tasted like sake and tea.
Coffee and chocolate for breakfast :-O Like most other things in Japan coffee is of high quality and artisanal in many cases. Pour-over seemed to be the local preference.
Ticketing bicycles for expired time.
Acquarium.
The SmoRRRRking area on our way to the ferris wheel.
The shopping area near our hotel.
The hotel recommended three Sushi restaurants. Ooops we couldn’t even read the name of the restaurants.
The best sushi we have had.
I love abalone and abalone shells.
This Rikuro japanese cheesecake is “The Cheesecake”.
Fluffy and very light.
