dinner date

Chris and I went out for dinner. I think it was some type of Asian fusion type food--not sure what kind, but it was good. We shared all the plates.





One thing I love about Yokohama and Japan in general is that you feel safe walking around at night. You don't get a feeling of dread walking around...you feel secure...you feel nothing out of the ordinary.

We walked back to our place from the restaurant (a couple train stops away). Right in front of the Yokohama Modern Art Museum are these little lights in the walkway. Next to the lights there are lots of small solar panels that take in light during the day. At night these little lights light up and fade in and out in different patterns all across the walkway. They are the color of fireflies--a greenish color. --They are very neat to see.
