RedBall Project Adventure!

Nyamo here! Earlier today I was looking through some of my old pictures from 2008 and found these from when the RedBall Project by Kurt Perschke was at Illinois Institute of Technology.

When I first saw it while wandering around on the IIT campus, I was really confused. What was this giant red ball doing under the tube?! Of course, I had to go investigate!

Nani kore? What's that?

As I got a closer look, my excitement grew.

How'd they get that under there? I've never seen anything like it in my adventuring before. Time to take a closer look...

Hmm...

Can you eat it? No...

But you can definitely play with it, nyah~ And it's art, too!

I heard that the Red Ball has been to cities all around the globe. Maybe one day I can travel around the world like that too!

Sushi Adventure!

Nyamo here! Time for another exciting adventure, and like all the best ones, this one involves food! And if you thought it couldn't get any better, it involves my favorite food of all: sushi!

My friends and I went out on an adventure to Chicago's north side to find an all-you-can-eat sushi place called Sushi Para II. It wasn't too hard to find after getting off the Red Line.

Yay! We made it! I can taste the sushi already!

It didn't take long to seat us. That made me really happy. Onaka ga suitakatta! I was really hungry! Ordering was done in rounds with paper sheets where you marked down how many of each kind of sushi you wanted.

Everyone's deep in thought trying to decide which kind of delicious sushi to start with first. Hmm...

I decided to start off with some miso soup. Totemo oishii!! So delicious~!

Everyone was excited as the sushi came out on huge platters. Tada!

Mmm.... Sooo good!

It wasn't long before all the sushi was gone and we really did have as much as we could eat. I definitely want to go back again, nya! Buuut, I heard there are some other fantastic all-you-can eat sushi places to visit in Chicago. Maybe I'll have to adventure there next time.
