Yesterday was our last day of training. To celebrate, we went out for dinner for shabu-shabu. The meal was excellent. We had 2 large pots of broth, bubbling on our table, to which we added thinly sliced pieces of vegetable, pork and beef, along with noodles, tofu and bits of chicken mince. We just kept adding food, and because the pieces were so small, they were cooked very quickly, and we could just fish out whatever we wanted to eat next. It was the most expensive meal out we've had so far in Japan, but it was definitely worth it. The food was great, and the "cook it as you eat it" approach makes for a very companionable meal. Also, the price was per head, and we could just keep ordering more food as we wanted it. By the time our two hour slot had finished, we were all finding our jeans a little tight. Japan is proving not to be meagerly rationed place I was expecting...
After dinner, we found ourselves a karaoke bar. We found that as a group we had a very diverse taste in music, and there were few songs that we all knew, but for a usually non-singer, I had a good time.
We slept well that night!
