Looking back toward the castle & main entrance gate as we exit. This is the "easy" entrance that most people take . . . (but not us!)
Cute tour buses as we walk down the hill from Kumamoto Castle.
And now we're crossing over the castle moat.
Famous Kumamoto drinking water. It's unusual to see "free" water anywhere in Japan, but the water here is famous.
Still walking back from Kumamoto Castle toward our hotel.
I love the design of this sidewalk tile!
Interesting sculpture.
It's lunchtime & we have time before our bus leaves, so we've headed into a restaurant inside a large department store. Stan ordered local beef steak, which comes with fries and spaghetti . . . I ordered a salad & small Japanese seafood pizza - no picture of mine though . . . ?

Ha, the steak with fries and spaghetti is probably like us eating sushi with Thai food. It's all sort of American, but no American would have put that meal together (um, probably, that is. I have heard some strange things... like spaghetti tacos and fried chicken with waffles).
OH, and I wanted to ask: is that castle you saw one of the buildings that is put together - held together, I mean - without nails or fasteners (at least without fasteners like we think of?)? I would love to check out the architecture there, since it evolved totally differently than ours here.
