Fugetsudo Sweet Shop

     We had searched for the Fugetsudo Sweet Shop inside the Japanese Village Plaza and decided to look for it when we came back later. Luckily, we found it right down the street from the hardware store!

     Inside, we found so many delightful sweets that we could have stayed there ALL day. I chose Strawberry Gummy Candy and Orange High Chew, and I also bought a present for my biology partner, who was at school dealing with our fetal pig project while I was buying candy! (Thanks, Camille!) The owners were very kind, and let us take as many pictures as we wanted. Here are some of the delicious treats we found:



     Unfortunately, our chaperone kept checking her watch and tapping her foot, which meant we had to go!

     As we raced down the street to find our next destination, we realized we were running right over golden words placed in the cement of the sidewalk. The first one we found said, “As children we played on this street and all the shopkeepers knew us.” This picture shows our feet as we paused to appreciate that sentiment!
