Friday, July 17th, 2009How many times have you been to another country and were able to photograph in a dentist’s office? I can scratch that from my list of thing to do.
Dentist: Kashiwa, Japan
After a check-up at the dentist we had lunch at a local favorite Bento, Lunch Shop.

Japan 2009: Joso to Moriya to Ueno
Monday, July 13th, 2009After a long flight we land get home, unpack and relax. Jet lagged, I gab my camera and run around the block to photograph a small shrine: Kashima Shrine, Joso, Japan.
The following day we met with friends for a night walk in a Rikugien (六義園) park in Ueno and had a wonderful dinner in Komagome, Tokyo.
Hoppy (ホッピー) is a beer-flavored beer that the Kokuka Beverage Company began selling in 1948. Hoppy became popular as a beer alternative due to beer being to expensive for regular people at the time Hoppy was first produced. A popular way to enjoy Hoppy is to mix with Shochu (焼酎) a distilled beverage native to Japan which is most commonly distilled from barley, sweet potatoes, or rice.
