Dr Strech is place in Japan that provides a Thai type stretch massage.  It is more stretching than massage.  It feels very good if you travelling and need a good stretch.

The two sisters making some breakfast.  Notice the grilled eggplant.  It the food that is in the season, so we eat a lot of what is grown in the garden.  I would prefer to make curry  or tomato sauce with eggplant, but I am not the one cooking.

That grilled eggplant.  A bit bland, but I can alway add a little sauce. 
Walking around in Okayama.  This is the little shopping area.  Most of these shopping areas in Japanese cities are having a hard time with retail occupancy.

A couple of signs in the restroom at the wine bar restaurant where we had dinner.  I have never seen a request for men to sit down in a public restroom, especially in america.  I guess they don't want to clean up the splattered pee all over the walls.  

Food at the wine bar.  It was better than I thought.  It was a very small kitchen, and the menu was quite large.  

Tasted three wines,and drank a glass the best one.  The super skinny stems on the glass scared me.  I have broken so many wine glasses.
