Osaka, Japan

Here is one picture I took a in September 2009 when I was in Osaka, Japan. Maybe someone has submitted it to your blog already, but I haven’t found it yet. It’s the front side of the Dotonbori hotel, a hotel I’d suggest to anyone visiting the city.

Pretty funky looking dudes holding up that hotel!

Tokyo, Japan

An interesting thing I noticed in Japan while shopping was that one had to take off their footwear before stepping into fitting rooms. This photo was taken at the Perfect Suit Company, but I observed the same practice being followed at the two Uniqlo branches I went to. I’m not sure if anyone else has experienced this. I’m worried it’s just because I have dirty slip-ons.

Never heard of that before, very interesting. And get clean slip ons!

Tohoku, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan

They were taken during my trip to Japan in summer 2012. More exactly, it’s Tohoku region, Miyagi Prefecture (the area which had suffered from the big earthquake in 2011). Me and my daughter met there with our Japanese friends and even took part in a big family picnic. And there was our first experience wearing national clothes “Yukata” with wooden sandals “Geta”. I hope you will like some of them.

Sweet Drops from Above

Do you remember hearing about the maple syrup heist from Canada a few months ago? Maybe not, but it was a really big deal in those circles and proved that some gold is in liquid form.

I’m not sure the man under the umbrella is too glad to be receiving the good fortune from the heavens. If only the grasshopper could get a little closer.

Great illustration!
