Walking around Kobe

My tutorial co-presenter Justin and I spent the a few hours walking around the center of Kobe before we did our final tutorial preparation.  I had a great time, Kobe is really a fun city.  It was great to see  the “Welcome to Kobe’ ISMIR 2009 signs on the Port Liner (the Monorail that goes from the main trainstation to the conference center).

I had sushi in a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant. Justin patiently walked me through the protocols and condiments.  I had a really fun time.  Being in Japan is really like being in the future.
