Sayonara Japan!
... baseball games allow people to bring outside food and drink (not alcohol) into the game. I never seen anything like it, I guess the baseball teams make enough money with the admission and alcohol. We brought a bunch of bentos, snacks, and drinks to the game.

Happy to be in Japan
Touchdown into Japan! Upon arrival, Kristen and I were so relieved to be standing on Japan soil. Everything made sense, train system, signage, clean bathrooms, and respectful people. It was a 180 degree difference between the Chinese and Japanese culture.
