Lots of stuff coming, as it`s been a busy couple of days.
Observations:
Cool thing here, BLIND TRACKS. Everywhere you go, there`s a strip about a foot wide that is a different texture from the sidewalk. It changes texture again when you are at a corner, stairs or other abnormal obstacle. This can be felt with a cane and even your feet. Very blind friendly. Plus, lots of people seem to have eye patches over an eye. It`s a thing.
The seats in the trains spin around so you can always face in the direction of travel. Some even do it automatically.
If you don`t like spiders, don`t come to Japan. They`re big and they`re everywhere. Warm and wet = spider heaven.
Neat game to play: scare the Japanese children. Except in the bigger cities, little kids aren`t used to seeing roundeyes / gaijin, so when they see you, they kind of freak out a bit if you surprise them. Kinda funny in the grocery store. Bonus points if you smile and or wave or greet them in Japanese.
More to come...
You guys are so evil!
