'Uniquely' Japan

Somethings unusual things you can find in Japan:

Traffic light: If Singaporean thinks that Jurong East& West Ave 1 has the most traffic light. Think again. This is taken at a shopping district at Ginza, Tokyo.

Cigarettes dispenser: Hmm I wonder how do they restrict the under 18 from buying cigarettes. Maybe in the first place they don't worry much about health problem associated with smoking; the Japanese are well known to have long lives.


Auto buttocks washer. Heard this is invented by the Sumo wrestlers' assistant - The sumo wrestlers are too 'f_t' to clean their butt, so every time they shit, their assistants have to clean them. So ...
Recycling Bins. Recycling bins maybe common in most places. But the Japanese really brings recycling to the next level. These are found almost everywhere. Japanese are very environmentally conscious.


Detect in fridge. This is found in some hotel fridges. If you take out bottles, you've to pay regardless you drink them or not, we are warned. Hmm, not easy reading the labels of the bottles.


Chandelier in the bus?

Christmas season is here!

Christmas season is here again! It's a time to pamper and rewards ourselves by indulging in a little shopping.

Pass by Taka and took this picture.


Also an art gallery - it seems like communist-chinese art is the IN thing now, and very expensive stuff to collect.
Colours!
Christmas season is also a time to reflect on what has happened in the year - and give thanks. And plan what's coming up next year.



Also very important - it is also a time to REST!
