Look at this pretty pretty Bambi and Bunny! Cuuuuute. I am melting now.....This is the first work day of this year, I divorce myself from reality.
The good news (web-translated) has come to ruins fans. Gunkan-jima will open to public. You may see strong visuals in the Gunkan-Jima-tour or cruise, but unfortunately it would be impossible to land there. In a sense, an undercover landing will be more difficult.
This is an interesting page, "a gallery of country stereotypes". I accept the Geisha as a Japanese image, but that old guy looks like a Chinese wise-man to me. Many of them are very close to my image for them.
A ladies portal web site researched (web-translated) "Do you like to go off by yourself?" 82.4% answered "Yes" to the question. Shopping, culture lessons like the tea ceremony, having a coffee at a cafe, physical lessons like Yoga, movies -- many women answered they would love to go by themselves. Do you think it's a funny question? But my impression is that the number of Yes answers is more than I supposed. Japanese women were asked if they "always do something with friends." Actually about 20% of women answered "No" still now. Even though many women like to act by themselves, there are some places where they hesitate to go alone. No.1 Yakiniku shop, No.2 Izakaya (Japanese bar), No.3 Snowboarding (or such outdoor sports). I understand it; Yakiniku shop and Izakaya are places we enjoy together, it's our image. What do you think? It would be different in a foreign country.
Hi Holden
I am hung over today. Yesterday I went to standing Yakitori place.
