Unrelated but found in the same paper with the info about the stamp rally was this pony who does therapy.
Kyde in the flowers.
Neat looking old school building.
I was shocked Kyde had seen these before! Haha.
Accurate.
She wasn't on the stamp rally, sorry.
That's quite a name haha.
Perfect conditions for a thumbnail!
Real talk I kinda want this bike. I don't know what for, I just want it.
Construction is amazing, right?
Kinda rare to come across such things in Japan. Nice to see people here being engaged with the outside world sometimes.
Outdoor escalators are a trip.
Monorail. Monorail! MONORAIL!

Back in the late 80s, I had worked part time in a walk-in clinic in midtown Atlanta, Georgia. Those syringe pens were popular at stores who sold medical uniforms and supplies and stuff. Some drug reps would give them out to the staff working in the doctors' offices they visited. Of course, the name and phone number of their pharmaceutical companies were printed on them. Maybe they're being popularized again due to corona. "Let's make pens shaped like cute syringes to make people less afraid to get vaccinated."

Are you far enough outside of Tokyo that you notice a lack of English on signs/menus? I looked up Crazy Horse on Google Maps and there wasn’t a bit of English anywhere. I wondered if that was the norm outside of the city, or if certain shops just didn’t expect foreign customers.

Yea, I guess so? I don't think about it so much to be honest, but there aren't really many reasons for most tourists to drift out this way so I guess there isn't a lot established for them. -E
