かわさき　たのしいかた：hanging with ようすけ, かんけ, and たくん。

I caught the train to おもり station, and grabbed some Ramen. For anyone ever in this area, there is a really good ramen shop as you take the east exit and turn left once you get to the street. Walk down a bit and you will find a Yokohama Ramen. Order the "pork bone" ramen, its their specialty, and its excellent. The soup is thick and hearty, and there are ample amounts of noodles and veggies thrown in. Being from Hawaii, I tend to need to eat two of everything in Japan just to fill up. Not the case here, as a regular was all I needed- though they do offer a large as well. Also throw in some char siu rice, and of course, lots of Kirin. For the first time in all my trips to Japan, I gave Chuhai a try. Tasted like Zima with some lemon squeezed into it. I immediately returned to the ol Kirin standby.

After that we bounced over to a place called Bagus. Its like an upscale pool hall. There are many upscale places in Japan, as Japanese workers are the highest paid in the world (according to the Big Mac index: http://tinyurl.com/22eftw) the cash tends to make its way through the economy, although its far from the glory days of the late 80s...

The one thing that sets Bagus apart is the fact that they also have a golf simulator. I had never played one, nor have I ever played a complete 18 holes of real golf. But I have to say the simulator was pretty fun, although a little inaccurate. But its really fun if you want to slam some golf balls indoors on the cheap.
