Travel in Japan

Things didn’t go as planned on Day 10 of our trip. It rained almost the whole day! Booohooo! Got out from our warm hotel room late and had brunch at Kawasaki Station food court.

Here I was reading the blogs of people I have links on my sidebar, and noticing the 7 links thingy that’s been cropping up recently and happily noting that nobody mentioned me. Just when I thought I was safe, I head over to David’s Ogijima and what did I see there?
