Something very special about Japan: no matter how rural or isolated the area you are in, just walk a few dozen meters and, chances are, you'll see a brightly lit drink vending machine somewhere nearby. And, most of the time, there will be a photo of a snazzy looking pop star on the front, to boot.
I really wanted to get a good photo of me riding my bike. This is a really, really important aspect of my life.
Sportin' the Mrs. Nelson's bag.
A basket well stuffed with elementary school teaching materials.
Not the finest design for a billboard. But at least I enjoy riding my bike past it every time I got to Nishidai.
I stopped and bought flowers. And the shop owner invited me to a Moka Rotary Club meeting.
