The visit to the homemade pizza oven lasted longer than we expected and we missed the showing of Corpse Bride. We weren't really in the right mood for sitting in a dark comfortable room though. A full day of food and drink meant that we were both ready for a quiet night in by the time the train had brought us back to Hamamatsu city.
A long time ago I mentioned that I would write a bit about Japanese toilets... Well I have decided to point you to an informative article on wikipedia which pretty much covers it.
Our toilet is fairly simple. Front and back jet spray, warmed seat and 'odour control'. They are scary looking things and I was a bit nervous the first time I tried to flush one. However they are not as scary as the 'traditional' japanese toilets. We used similar toilets across asia but it seems crazy that on one floor of a department store you can use a toilet sophisticated enough to play a good game of chess and talk about recent economic problems experienced by guatamalan coffee farmers and on another floor you a faced with a filthy stinky hole in the floor. Anyway I think I have exaggerated the importance of toilets enough... So... have a nice breakfast!
