Foreign Friday

Tokyo fish market
Tokyo, Japan
1979
I was elected a representative for the Overseas Education Association, which held its meetings in Tokyo. The representatives from Misawa AFB flew to Tokyo for the weekend and sometimes were able to do a bit of site-seeing and shopping.

One trip resulted in an outing to a fish market -- lots of fresh fish of EVERY kind were displayed on ice.

No doubt these fish were purchased that morning at the Tokyo Fish Market.

  2. Wow - that's a lot of fish. Have you ever seen the film "Jiro Dreams of Sushi?" Highly recommend it.

  4. Oh YIKES! That is one place I could not GO! Although, I suppose if I was brought up there, maybe I would LIKE fish.

    Interesting photo!

  5. Yum - fresh fish would be wonderful. One of the things I like the most about travel is eating local cuisine.

  8. We were going to go to the fish market last time we were in Tokyo but after a late night we cringed at the 3:30 wake up to be there in time and decided to skip it that visit! :-). Lazy bones! The fish looks wonderful. I love all of the fresh fish places to eat in Japan. Not so much here.
    Blessings,

  10. Yep, reminded me of pics of Pike Place also. Now if I really liked lots of fish I'd be drooling....
