King Kong Pachinko

Well, that's not actually the name of the pachinko parlor, but that's what many people call it. I have thought about taking a picture of this place since I first saw it, but just finally did. The building model and King Kong figure are actually fairly large. Not a great picture; maybe I'll get a better one next time.

Sakura Soda 2

The sakura soda is delicious-I had some with lunch today! It's very sappari (light, refreshing taste). Americans will probably think "cherry soda = very sweet, thick taste" but this isn't too sweet, it's not too strong, and it almost reminds me a little of peach flavor. (No "cherry cough drop" nasty medicine taste.)

Sakura Soda

Spring time is coming-you can tell because the stores have lots of products with sakura (cherry blossom) flavor. I had heard of sakura soda before, but I didn't have the chance to get any last year, and it seems to be marketed only seasonally. [Sakura Kit Kat is great, but more on that when I finally get around to my Kit Kat blog entry.] I'll post a review when I try the soda later (it's in my refrigerator cooling down now).
