Yep! I got up a 4 a.m. to go to the Tsukiji fish market, a wholesale place filled with tons of huge fresh fish and hundreds of buyers looking for the best fish, crabs, shrimp, eels, octopus, seaweed, and lots of other ocean products that I surely didn't recognize. I'm afraid I do recognize a live eel when I see one, and I saw lots of live ones in people's buckets tangled all around each other just waiting to be on someone's dinner plate that evening. I really enjoyed the tuna auction where some of the tuna were bigger than I am. You can see that, too, on the earlier blog entry about the Tsukiji fish market.

Mrs. Darnell,
Wow! Those fish are really big.
Do you know how old the fish is.

Dear Mrs. Darnell,
I enjoyed reading about the fish market. It is gross to eat eels. Have you eaten one?
