Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo

We caught a taxi early one morning to get to the fish market before 6:00 a.m. It was a humming, bustling place. Little motor vehicles were zipping around, and woe be to any tourist that stepped in their path. According to author T.R. Reid this market imports from 60 countries and moves about 5 million pounds of seafood per DAY! There were things wiggling around that I have no idea what to name.
