Tsukiji Fish Market

---

This is the huge fish market in Tokyo - an amazing place;　if slightly morbid for the average vegetarian.
You have to get here early for the first catch of the day - means getting up at 6 ! Which we had to do two days in a row.. because they had a random holiday on Wedsnesday that they hadn't told anyone about. It was just full of lost looking tourists the first time we turned up ;-)
Anyway here are some fish for your amusement...
