The Tsukiji Fish market - world's largest wholesale fish/seafood market in the world. Handling over 2000 tons a day! |
Ice machine per se...walk up, pay for a block and they load it into that big machine that turns it into chips. |
 |
 |
Vending machines everywhere in Japan. |
 |
Your town pump. If you notice there isn't a pump on the ground like you see elsewhere in the world. It's because it's on the ceiling. That's what's hanging down. |

Yodobashi - Akiba is my heaven! 9 floors of nothing but electronics! |
Was very dissapointed to discover electronics were more expensive in Japan than home. Very odd. |
 |
 |
How I ate in Japan - buy pictures or these handmade wax samples. Not being able to read the menu made it a fun experience! |
 |
One thing I started doing throughout all my travels was take photos of funny grammar or spellings. (PS - it's Chardonnay) |
I went to this one restaurant and they placed a napkin over my bad that was beside me on the bench. I thought maybe it was me, then looked around and noticed they did that for everyone - coats laid over chairs, etc. Not sure if it was the restaurant policy or a custom in Japan. |
Akiba district - the electronics mecca for Tokyo |
Right near the Ueno train station |
 |
Saw lots of signs telling people not to smoke and walk - not sure why. But found it quite funny! Maybe because there are so many massive crowds? |
 |
The high end shopping strip of Ginza |
 |

 |
 |
Was sooo good! Or should I say "tasty" |
