    Yes, that was cool and interesting. I too love to explore more about Japanese art and culutre, particularly symbolisms.

      Japanese culture is more collective than other western culture, and many things are not said but people just follow. It´s curious. I like to explain it as much as possible with many examples. Hope you keep finding new faces of Japan.

    Great website, I enjoyed reading your posts. Just got back from Hamaori-sai in Chigasaki. Excellent festival well worth checking out.

      Chigasaki is one of the popular surfing spot and one of my favorite hama (beach) around Tokyo, but I haven´t been to Hamaori sai. Good to know, thank you for the information, Chris. Hope you enjoy sticky summer in Japan.
