I'll be on the west coast, Tokyo is almost directly opposite on it's east coast, maybe a couple hours.
It's been about 10 years since I've been to Japan. |

On my second week, not much time for leisure the work schedule has been grueling as predicted. I had this weekend free but am still not well enough from a bug I caught. Going to a japanese hospital was an experience. With no scheduled appt, I was able to see a Dr., get an xray, bloodwork, and anti-biotics within 3 hrs all for ~$150.
The people and society are distinctly different and I'm still trying to find the common ground. Everything takes so long for decisions to be made and to translate any type of communication. Even with translators, the information gets miss-interpreted. If I have to come back I want an American who speaks Japanese, not a Japanese who speaks a little English... Here's a car I saw on the street, it sounded like a mid-engine V8. Anyone know what it is?  |
