you know you’re in japantown when…
I’ve seen street signs written in a few different languages in various ethnic areas of Toronto and San Francisco, but I hadn’t seen Japanese before.

I like sushi
I’m trying not to buy food (both because I’ve spent a lot lately, and since I’m leaving San Francisco I don’t want more food than I can eat), but I ended up getting some sushi anyway. Since it was so late in the day I got the last that that vendor had; eight pieces of something (started with ‘f’), for just $3.00. Not bad.

Cherry Blossom Festival
Going along streets I hadn’t been on also led me to discover Japantown. The lout noise let me to this street festival. Occording to Mike, who was apparently there not long before I was, it is the Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival. I was there late in the day so missed the performances, such as seen in Niall’s photos.
