And I love that the scenes are in motion at a walking pace. There I was crossing that incense-filled plaza, or awash in Chinese red at the temple, or in that crowd at the busy corner — feeling very privileged indeed to journey for a moment in Japan alongside Moose and Goose. A sweet observation on the tourists' respectfulness especially, but it's all richly interesting! Thank you so much!<BR/><BR/>RutgersAlumnaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-43869950428434931302007-07-31T12:08:00.000-04:002007-07-31T12:08:00.000-04:00Poor thing!

It's great advice, and I meant to mention it in today's post. Thanks for backing me up on the eating in public issue. I must report that we did see a fellow eating while walking not long after I finally convinced Goose to eat in the great outdoors. Perhaps manners are going to hell here, too.<BR/><BR/>Suddenly I'm wide awake! Here's hoping the Benadryl kicks in soon.<BR/><BR/>xo,<BR/>MooseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-57075103607059386192007-07-31T10:42:00.000-04:002007-07-31T10:42:00.000-04:00Most major department stores in Japan have that lo...Most major department stores in Japan have that lovely food basement. In the town in which we lived, there was a store called Sakaiya with a bakery that made baguette with swiss cheese baked into it. The wonders of Japan! They also sold three cans of Del Monte fruit for twenty dollars (evidently, it was a typical Christmas gift--Del Monte is so exotic). Don't worry so much about eating in public. Just don't eat when you walk. That's generally frowned upon. I'm so glad you guys are having a blast! Try some of the delicious iced coffee they sell in vending machines! And if you find yourself on the Keihen-Kyuko train line (the transfer point in Tokyo is Shinagawa), think of me!<BR/><BR/>xxoo,<BR/>The Official Prep School Teacher of Roxie's WorldGeoffreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18357719173715772046noreply@blogger.com
