横浜の美術館 (Yokohama Museum of Art)
This morning I met my friend Takako at the Yokohama Museum of Art. It was our first time meeting in person. We have been Skype language exchange partners for a little over a year.
The art museum has a special exhibit of works by Monet along with related artwork by other artists and Japanese artwork made in homage to Monet. It was a lovely and interesting exhibit all around.
Also at the museum is an enormous crow. Takako thought it was very cute so we took some pictures.
After the art museum we went to a たべほおだい (all-you-can-eat) place where you bread and deep fry your own food on a stick. I had eggplant, lotus root, takoyaki, squid, sweet potato and okra. There was also rice and a pickle bar to put on top. And dessert including many kinds of jello, mochi, fruit and a white chocolate fountain with mini donuts to dip.
We walked around for awhile after. There are a bunch of interconnected shopping malls and we could avoid the heat. The afternoon ended with a stop for cold drinks and a plan to meet tomorrow.
