Pamela: Nice post, I love the underwear with the face, how funny is that. The dragon heads are stunning, the guy in the middle is so cute. I love your lunch, it looks yummy, Mike cooks Japanese often.
Your meal reminded me that I wanted to tell you that I tried Sushi for the first time last week. I am wondering how the food that you share pictures of would taste. xx, Carol
Once upon a time toilet paper came in single sheets. Just like tissue paper in a box, when you took out one sheet the next one was half way pulled out. It was easy for cleaning staff to add another pile of sheets underneath so you never ran out of paper, and every single sheet was used.
When loo paper comes on a roll, eventually it will run out and there is no more paper - you have to have a new roll ready. In public toilets in Japan there is usually a new roll on a shelf.
Too many people in Japan don't want to use the last bit of paper on the roll so they open a new packet instead. There must be masses of wasted paper when people discard the core of the roll with a good bit of paper still on it.
I was surprised to see your lunch of buckwheat noodles and rice. Is that a raw quail's egg?
I agree with the Vireya. In Japan,there are strange English and poorly explained English.
The flowerbed that someone is taking care of warms everyone’s hearts.
I love soba. I am particular about the proportion of buckwheat flour. In the area you visit,it may be common to drop quail eggs into buckwheat noodles and eat them.

Glad you didn't use up all the toilet paper! There's been enough fear of that happening over the last two years.

These are fun. I love your lunch tray. I can't have soy sauce till I finish my meds and I really want it! Beautiful and very fun photos.
ReplyDeleteThat soba looks delicious! You always discover fun things when you are traveling.
