BTW: I agree with you about vacationing in Japan. For the most part: - Language barrier is not as difficult as might be expected. - I feel safe walking unfamiliar streets late at night. - The transportation systems are orderly and clean. - Food and other ammenities are plentiful. - The monetary system is a base 10 and easy to figure out. - There a good mix of urban and rural, modern and ancient destinations to visit. Blah, blah, blah...  |

Well thought I would bring this thread back to like. "Month of the Daughter" From what little English the Hotel reseptionest could speak,She explained that this was a dedication to Daughters. A wish of prosper life,love, Happines and Babies. I thought this was very cool looking display. All items are made from cloth fabric by hand. You could judt tell alot of work went into these. You can't walk among them.Everything is roped off. Good thing this was on display in my Hotel lobby. I was the only guy there looking at it and taking pictures  The month of the Son Begins on May 5th. So they have a celebration for the guys as well. I Won't be here for that one. So enjoy the pictures. Later, Blackrain

 The dolls can get crazy expensive(tens of thousands of dollars). It gets displayed for a while but it's more or less celebrated on one day. Boy's day gets overshadowed here by Cinco de Mayo. I used to fly a mini carp off my car but someone stole it.  | |

I lived in Japan for a year. One time I left my wallet on the train with $300 equivalent in Yen. It sat for 2 weeks before I could get it, on the EXACT SAME SPOT I left it in, with tall the money in it untouched. Hundreds and hundreds of people walked past it, sat next to it, and saw it and were honorable enough to leave it alone. I love that country. Oh, and the scuba diving is AWESOME!!!

Easy to remember... 3/3 = Girls' Day (Hina Matsuri "doll festival"). 5/5 = Boys' Day (now it's Childrens' Day). The joke is 4/4 is for coming out of the closet. If you know who the comedian HG is, or Ivankov from One Piece... then I think you'll get the idea.  |

That's a negative on touching. To many old Ladies that would probably beat my A$$ I was lucky I got to take the pictures. Later, Blackrain
