I forgot to post these photos I took of weird shit in Japan. Apparently they like drinking sweat, buying coffee and cigarettes from vending machines, using electric toilets and washing their clothes with devices made by Sanyo.
The weird thing about the vending machines, is that they’re everywhere. They just leave them sitting out on the footpath, so that you can stop and buy stuff as you are walking along. They’re kinda handy if you feel like a quick snack late night.
During our stopover in Japan, Vicki and I headed to the Shingon Buddhist temple in Narita city.
According to Wikipedia:
This temple is one of the most well known in the Kant region of Japan and is only surpassed in visitors during the O-shogatsu period (lit: New year period) by the Meiji Shrine in Tokyo. The temple grounds are composed of a main gate, a steep stairwell and the main buildings (including a couple of five-story pagodas), and a garden area with large pond. A very small zoo is also within the temple grounds.
Vicki and I stopped over in Japan on our way back from Europe. Here are some lovely photos of the wonderful delicacies you can enjoy whilst visiting 😀
I also tried authentic Japanese sushi and a few other generic local foods, but I won’t bore you with photos of those.
