The 100 yen store is our very favorite place to shop. No, we did not buy these hats.

You can't really tell from this picture, but this is a HUGE pile of garbage. Apparently it costs less money to rent a lot and build a huge garbage pile than to pay to have it dumped here in Japan ... um ...

Out to dinner with a friend of Brett's.

The place we went had thesepaper bibs they gave everyone ... pretty funny.

Brett's cup can only be described as "monolithic".
