There was now no longer new entry, but the reason for this is clear in the next reports.
How normal conversations, we start by talking about the weather.
is the moment, the crazy in Kobe, April weather describes it best. An example: Last week is gone in a day in the morning a strong wind, there were already big as a light storm. During the day, he then stopped and it was very hot, up to 10-12 degrees in the shade, proper spring just as it cooled down at night and has begun to snowing, and indeed so strong that even several inches of snow on the trees, etc. were and the snow in the morning was still there.
power the way a beautiful picture: Several inches of snow on green leafy trees and shrubs.
in Harbor Country, the companies have come up with a nice idea for the Olympic Games in Beijing (Peking). They have life-size Figures drawn up the middle in the execution of the traditional Olympic disciplines, but the figures represent famous people from the time of the Three Kingdoms in China (about 3.Jahrh retired.) Dar. So after the motto: What looked like it would if The Chinese had invented the Olympics? (And how they called it ...) complete the picture by statements about the new sports and personalities.
When riding the train I'm also a commercial for Lehar Fanz Operetta "The Merry Widow seen," is that I was surprised to say the least. Sorry, no photo of it ... I
Funny anecdote: The two Germans and one evening I was in town for dinner, and as we walked through the streets, we were approached by a Korean, though we did not know a good club in the area. Imagine: you are in a foreign city, want to ask for directions, and speaks with intent to exactly the people who come as quite obvious not only from the city, not even from the country! And yet it is understandable since it was Koreans and we were raised in English, because apparently was not one of the Japanese group and they have appealed to those who are most likely to speak English.
The following paragraph is once again only for players ("gamers"), the other readers can immediately move on to the column.
In Osaka I recently Nipponbashi, including Den Den Town (Electric Electric City ") visited. What Akihabara for Tokyo, Osaka's Den Den for: a haven for otaku, players and all the technology and electronics lovers. Let me stress I put my stop in two retro-shops in which are computer games, books, etc. from ancient times to sale, are available with us Pratical impossible. There was almost everything from Playstation, Dreamcast, Neo Geo, Super Nintendo, Nintendo, Master System and so on, and even old games from the arcade during the 80s, and all used but in original and excellent condition!
Here is a photo of one of the SNES Departments:
SNES Final Fantasy Parade
Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secret of Mana 2, never appeared outside Japan)

interesting (and funny ) facts / opinions about Japan:
Another round of reader questions:
what Japanese do in their (scarce) spare time?
difficult to answer, I will consider here the sports clubs of pupils and students, a common going to drink after work the business NOT as free time. Then they actually do this, what make Europeans meet primarily with friends, go shopping and play computer games. And the seasons they go with the traditional festivals, such as: fireworks in the summer.
Are things really any more expensive in Japan a lot?
No, it's just divided differently. Luxury goods and even food are much cheaper than at home, these are things of daily life, especially if you have a family, a lot more expensive. The author lives personally cheaper in Japan than at home because he has no family and he does not need many of these things, and as the euro at the moment is very strong. The
Klisch of Japan's overly expensive is because there is almost only Tokyo (on television etc.) to view them in capitals and especially in inner cities, life is always more expensive. Japan also has a 5% tax
Matching: What is it with the price of garment (clothing, note) in Japan?
robe is unfortunately on average more expensive, you can grab some bargains on fashionable things (if you can find its size), but beware: if you not take away, we can get you a heart attack when you look at the price tag. Shoes are special, on sale, often a lot cheaper. Speaking of selling out: There are year-round things on offer, they are not so much dependent on-sale.
