Japan has so much history that I find pretty much anything interesting. I just follow the lead of my gf and go from there. I personally try to stay away from the typical tourist attractions since she is native Japanese. I'll ask her for some recommendations and see what she says.

However, as a guy I would suggest checking out the Shibuya district in Tokyo. You won;t be disappointed especially if you go in the store Shibuya 109. There are floors and floors of girls, with some being super hot haha. Enjoy!

Will do. The "No F'n" thing is actually a Zippo style lighter. I'll pm you.

You could order the Iphone online and have it mailed to you in Japan or just have it sent to a relative in the US and have them mail it to you.

The 3G that I have went down $100 in price too
Thanks for the heads up again! I'm going to place my order this week! Unfortunately, they do not ship out of the US, so I will have to have my sister airmail it to me here. I want to get some custom artwork done on the back of it.

I'm really looking forward to having all of my email pushed and the skype application for INTL calls!

Here are some random snapshots and a quick shopping day in Osaka.

I had to get up early since...



The dressing rooms were right in the middle of the store. My gf started laughing since while I was changing, I kept peering over the door since it is so low haha.





Stock EK Hatch Type-R I spotted:



Kids drawings for Father's day:



Glazed Waffles:



Their soft serve ice cream is 100 times better than the US:





Kid's bathroom:









Another type of grapes (These are much larger than the ones I showed previously:





Waiting for the train:



The train is pretty much empty when starting off in the countryside:

Some random people on the train:



In Japan, this girl is considered huge since the girls are pretty petite for the most part:



This reminded me of the Chris Rock skit where he was talking about fat black women rockin' pumps with the pump fat hanging out lol:





Custard filled fish (The texture of the outside is similar to mochi):





Namba Walk:









Osaka:







We decided to try out this fried skewers place (It was a ripoff):



You have to dip your fried food in the sauce, so they have instructions on no double dipping haha:











It's not that common to see homeless people in comparison to Southern Cali:





She had an interesting outfit on:



Apple store in osaka:





First boba place we saw in Osaka (Chinese owned of course and was not that good. San Gabriel spots in California are better haha):



Ice Dogs:



Interesting hat in a Hip-Hop/New Era hat store:



"Gap"?



Shopping in Osaka:









I was hungry again from all of the walking so i wanted to eat at this hamburg spot. Hamburg is a mixture of ground beef and pork to create a good taste and extremely soft texture:



Their menu:





I decided to try out the Strawberry Milk. They use real strawberries so it tastes better than the typical Nestle Quick :





Hamburg Plate:







Some surrounding restaurants/stores in Osaka:











Replica Converse haha. Reminds me of the Vork wheels haha.:



The guy pushing his food let me take a pic with his 420 yen sign:



Turkish ice cream:





This chick looked like a referee/Foot Locker worker:



Artwork on the outside of the subway:



Heading back home from Osaka:





This chick had interesting slippers and nails:





It gets tight in there sometimes:



Rare Caucasian sighting in the countryside:

We're not in Shibuya yet, so these will have to do for now for the guys that wanted to see some chicks. Unfortunately, I couldn't take any face shots since I was with my girl haha.

I'm a sucker for leggings and this chick kept squatting down and showing a bit of her ****/camel toe through her tight shorts.



This one reminded me of an Asian version of Alicia Keyes. Her face was cute:

man awesome pictures. I went to Nagoya last year for business and I loved it! I'm a total sucker for japanese girls. Except when you're chinese, you kinda don't stand out as the tourist so girls don't notice you. I know when my work co-workers go there, even if they're freakin ugly, as long as they're tall with blonde hair they can get any girl. It sucks!

I can't wait to go back again (either for work, or play ) But the next time will probably be with the gf. Which will still be fun. Keep the pics coming!
