Quirky Things About Japan Pt.2
There is a golf shop on every corner, but we're yet to see a golf course.
So far we haven't found any affordable department stores....looks like we'll be shopping at Walmart (type stores) and Louis Vuitton.
No one really goes to the movies here.
In the Shinjuku District there are blocks and blocks of JUST restaurants.
Most Japanese people eat lunch out.
American restaurants we've seen so far: McDonalds (on almost every corner), Subway, Dennys, TGIFs, Outback Steakhouse, Hard Rock Cafe, Baskin Robbins, Starbucks.
I found a Mexican restaurant. :)
Most public bathrooms offer western and Japanese style toilets
Taxi drivers are insane
Juice, Tea, and sparkling water count as Soft Drinks
Other than Hello Kitty, we haven't been able to find a place to buy souvenirs (sorry)...except that Louis Vuitton handbag and we don't love you that much.
They have Gap, but only up to a Ladies Size 10.
In houses and apartments the showers are by the kitchen (for plumbing purposes), not by the bedrooms.
Public bathroom signs aren't standard. They are all different and some are pretty funny.
Womens Fashion: Short skirts and shorts with leggings/tights and boots.
Restaurants ALWAYS give you a warm wet washcloth or wet wipe to wash your hands and face prior to eating your food.
