I still can't get over the fact that you actually met someone in the Yakuza, ...

When did she said she had met someone in the Yakuza? I thought that someone had just told her to watch out for Yakuza, or did I miss something?

Midway page two...

Yeah, people make a huge deal over the yakuza. They're really not that dangerous to tourists. I ended up talking to one in a darts bar.

...Unless I read it wrong.

No you read right, lol. And I don't know about McDonalds (whoever asked that question), but I do know the portions are smaller. Lol, why would I eat at McDonalds???? I can have that any time!

I'm in Osaka now. It's hot as anything. We'll be heading to Nara in about half an hour. Gonna take some pictures of the deer.

AND TEZUKA MUSEUM ON SUNDAY!!!

A couple more before starting the day!



Electronic store at the Niigata train station




This might be my favorite picture so far. 4 of the NCAD students posed for a picture




Japanese 100 yen store XD




Revolving sushi!




Me taking a picture of Corine taking a picture of the revolving sushi




Meeting the NCAD staff




A picture of a class in progress. That one girl waving was adorable. I don't think I've ever had anyone more excited to see me in my entire life.


More to come!

I have a question. Is 100 yen about the same as a dollar?

[avatargirl]

thanks for sharing pictures about your trip mr skunk- according to my 2009 almanac- 106.71 yen= 1 us dollar- more then likely that has changed since then- my 2010 almanac did not show how many yen= a dollar

[mr skunk]

It's about a dollar yes
