Photos from Japan, Part 12. More random scenes.

Some random scenes from Japan through Cheryl's eyes.


You've seen these in our grocery stores. These little prizes are in Jusco, our favorite grocery store in Japan.



This is the tatami maker right around the corner from where we were staying. Apparently, hand-made tatami mats are rare these days. He was always very pleasant when we walked by.

On our way to Hiromi and Tsune-chan's house, we passed this scarecrow. Tsune-chan said it was world-famous. Somehow, it hasn't become famous in America.

I can't remember what train station this was, but it was decorated with these mosaic murals for each month. They were very pretty.
