Akita mall

After missing breakfast thinking it started at 9am when it actually closes at 9. Some friends and I decided to go to the Aeon Mall in Akita. Bus is pretty cheap 150yen (1,5€) for the ride. I had quite a lot of thing to do ( like always...) I go some cash from the bank, because you can't pay with credit cards or only with Japanese ones. So with me best Japanese and a little help of Anthony managed to find a ATM machine that would accept my "Mozaic Master Card"not very common in Japan...
Also managed to find an adaptable plug for french plug. To my great surprise was a lot easier then I thought.
By this time it was 10:45, and we were all really hungry!!! Only one solution good old McDonalds.
I went for the McTeriyaki, large fries and coke, defiantly a sandwich to recommend in France. For dessert I had something I remember having when I was just a wee lad back in Scotland, Apple Pie. It was absolutely delicious. I feel really bad for the french people how have never had the opportunity to try it. After brunch, I went looking for a camera to illustrate my words. Unfortunately I was unlucky I didn't find any thing that interested me. I also had more important purchases to make, BEER!!! Tonight is the Omagari Japanese national fireworks competition, with 30 of the best firework markers of all over Japan and 1million people are expected to come and watch. (hopefully I wont get lost... )
Beer is roughly the same price as in France, I bought a little can for tonight to keep warm while watching the fireworks. (photo below)

 for tonight ;)

Ok of to catch the bus, to the train station. It's a 1hour trip to Omagari.  We've got to get there early to get good spot!!!
