    So my friends are still living in Japan, and I had the opportunity to go visit them again recently! I got to go around and see a lot more stuff this time since I bought a rail pass. For those of you who are interested, here are a few of my favorite photos from the trip:

    This statue is outside a major department store attached to Nagoya station. They change her outfit often. Supposedly if a couple walks between her legs, they'll break up.

    [​IMG] This is a "Oh my God I'm gonna die!" face. Not to be confused with a "Wee! this is fun!" I just happened to take the picture at the perfect moment.

    The baby is none too pleased.

    I've been trying to work in Japan teaching English. I can't wait to be accepted into a year-long program. :)
