These 5 were taken in Narita, which is about 40 mins by train from the airport. It's a really nice town to get over jet-lag for a day or two. Anymore than that and you'll be bored.. It has a temple and surrounding gardens which are perfect for relaxing!!! I highly recommend getting to the temple early to sit-in on the morning.....cermony, sorry i don't know the correct term, but basically when the monks do their thing. I got an enormous sense of well-being that morning.

No.1 & No.2 are of Hakodate, Hokkaido, famous for it's fishing, delicious sashimi and this view!! (Got my first experience of racism here)
No.3 is Wakkanai, Hokkaido, the most northern point of Japan!
No.4 is midday Harajuku, Tokyo. The building on the right with the pink stripes is called Condomania. It sells every type of condom you could possible want. hee hee!
No.5 is my favourite of all temples i visited in Japan. It's in Obama, Honshu.

Thanks!
I got refused at bars. Wasn't even allowed through the door. "No, no, no. Japanese only. Sorry". After a couple of beers, the "sorry" really rubbed salt in the wound, but I wasn't about letting that ruin my time there...
I only experienced it in Hakodate and Sendai. But I was told by my Japanese friends that it was more likely them being worried you would talk to them, meaning they would 'have to' speak English. Apparently many Japanese avoid Gaijin for that very reason in everyday situations.
Oh and a porn shop told me to get out too... |

Hehe, I only got that once, that was in Osaka. I think yakuza might have been involved in that one so I decided to keep my nose out of that place.
That's some really beautiful pics btw. The only time I got to see some nature, besides concrete jungle, was in Hakkone.

Same thing happened to me in Marseille, France and Mumbai, India. Being an american abroad isn't much fun these days. |

a city bus driver announced "hey foreigner, sit down and shut up" to me while I was on my first date with this girl. i was drunk and he said it in japanese of course, so i had to ask her what he'd said. then i tried in my stumbling, polite, japanese to ask him to stop the bus and get out so i could kick his ass. good times. :)
