Our last Tokyo adventure was the Tsukiji Fish Market. They let a select group of people into the famous Tuna Auction at 6:30 am. But, the group is so small, it is recommended that you arrive by 4 am to be assured a spot. We decided to sleep in instead.
We had sushi for breakfast. It tasted like sushi. There is some talk that all the tuna sold in this fish market is actually caught in the USA. I don't know if its true or not.
After breakfast we walked around the outer market stalls.
The market was amazing.
I have no idea if these prices are good, but it looks like you could eat fresh fish every day. No wonder Japan is such a healthy country.
At a certain time, visitors are allowed into the internal wholesale market.
It was a little crazy. These things are zipping around everywhere. You really have to be on your toes so that you don't get in someone's way.
It was pretty neat to walk around the market and see all the exotic foods.
After we had enough of the fish, we headed back to the hotel, grabbed our luggage & headed to Kyoto.
