- used bookstores (so I can buy the Honey & Clover manga!)
- great public transportation
- great home goods/stationary stores (like George's, where I buy my mmmg.)
- aloe yogurt
- yogurt and ice cream available in drink packets (Coolish!)
MINUS -
- horrible fresh fruit (I bought a 300yen apple and it was beautiful...but not so tasty.)
- wasteful packaging (Do you really need to wrap an apple in plastic AND cushioning?)
- hot, humid weather
- packed trains and nowhere to sit
- tiny airplane bathrooms
I'm so disappointed in my apple and my watermelon. The only good fresh fruit I've bought here is that yellow watermelon. I'm dying to buy grapes, but they're 9-10 bucks for 2 bunches. We'll see when I give in. On the other hand, I'm excited to read Honey & Clover. I liked the movie, so I'm hoping the fairly short manga will be just as good...and easy enough to read.
