I took tons of pictures in Japan and will probably not upload every single one of them, but I will upload them randomly whenever I can. I came across this little shop at Dotonbori, Osaka. Isn’t it cute!

We walk passed an arcade at Umeda, Osaka filled with toy catcher machines and here are some funny ones! They allow customers to catch live puffer fish, mini fans, snacks and toys! Insane

Such eating place using vending machine for order taking and payment is common in Japan! We ate this during one of the highway stop over and were given 15 minutes to finish our lunch. We ordered, paid and ate within 15 mins! The best thing? It tasted great! Love Japanese rice and Japanese beef curry on pork cutlet!

(Top Left Shows the usual touch screen panel, a top conveyor lane and a usual conveyor lane.
(Top Right) The top conveyor lane is for special orders and it will deliver and stop specifically at your table and there will be an alarm system which informs you that your “train” is coming!
(Bottom Left) After you are done with your plates which all costs 100 Yen, you slide them down here and there is a sensor which will count the number of plates you have eaten.
(Bottom Right) For every five plates throw into the system, you stand a chance to win a Tikam Tikam. You will have to watch a carton featuring the mascot of the sushi chain competing in various sports event. If the mascot win, you will win a little toy!

(Left) You even get your own beer and pay for it yourself using this machine! Talk about self service!
(Right) Our table won a small toy!

One of the must try when you are in Japan is their fruits! The freshest and nicest and they cost a lot cheaper compared than if you get them in Singapore! I bought a pack of yummy strawberries! Yums! Don’t remind me of radiation please. Haha.

Nagoya Castle. I’ll share more of it’s history another day but it’s sad that most part of the Nagoya Castle is a replica today because most of it was burnt down during the second world war.

Love the vibe and mood in Nagoya, Japan.

As Jason puts it, Japan’s ingenuity!

It is a nice size and good space for Yoga practice! Haha.

(Top left) Even though the mirror fogs out after a hot shower, there is always this rectangle which is clear for you! How nice!
(Top right) The magic body sponge which will miraculously expand after you open and wet it. Perfect for a hot shower and clean scrub!
(Bottom left) Love that they have small trays to put your small valuables!
(Bottom right) A hidden vanity mirror which is a nice wall display too!

Some of the little touches which I love! See! It is all in the details that count!

The view from my room. Central Toyota City!
