Day 18 - Horse Track

Day 18 - Sept. 22nd

All of us slept in today. We didn't really get moving for some time. Anna and I decided to head out and see the city, while LT stayed in. We walked past a place that had horse betting. When I say a place, I mean a seven-story building with every floor slammed packed with tellers and betting machines. Although we didn't really understand everything, we managed to place a wager on one of the races and then hung to see if we would win. We bet horse number five. Unfortunately, we didn't win but had a great time people watching.

When we got back from walking around, we hooked up with LT and went out to grab some food. It was a place where you shared the meal and boy did, we share. LT chose all the ingredients and when the waitress came, she quickly told us that the broth type we had requested was very spicy. We were glad for her advice because the broth was just right. It had Peking duck, cow tongue, wagyu beef, mushrooms, and countless other items in it. It was delicious!
