Narita, Japan (April 10-11)
WE had an absolutely amazing time in Japan. The things we observed / learned / felt:
(1) Japanese cab drives do NOT want kids getting their cabs dirty. They have covers on their seats and expect kids' shoes to be clean when they enter and their shoes to get NOWHERE near the cab seats.
(2) the cab drivers wear gloves. They hand a tray onto which you put the money to pay. They then make change and hand the change-on-the-tray back to you.
(3) kids are to be seen but not heard in most places.
(4) kids are adored. Really cherished. But expected to behave well. (br> (5) The hotel room we stayed in was SO SMALL. It meant our immense amound of luggage and carseats lived downstairs in their lobby (they were mortified but very polite) while the 5 of us shared a postage-stamp sized hotel room.
(6) the sights are amazing. Absolutely gorgeous.
(7) hand-made, Japanese authentic (vegetarian) sushi is OHMYGODSOGOOD.
