So I went to Japan and saw some "interesting" things, so I thought I'd show some of them here.

The temple is actually plated in gold.

I didn't know if I'd be able to find a japanese man in a kilt, but I succeeded.

For some reason we found it odd that a sumo was on a cell phone.

xD @ the first two. I don't have great stories, but when I went to Italy when I was 10, gypsies tried to steal my Dad's wallet. I was like "Whoa, gypsies really DO exist."

I read that last one as "For some reason we found it odd that a hippo was on a cell phone." I bet Japan was a lot of fun. I've been there once.

It's my wife's cousin. He came with us for his spring break. It made for a pretty sweet spring break if you ask me.

By the expressions on the faces of the people around him, it looks like they all thought so as well. :cat:

It's actually on the edge of a pond that you walk around. It's only about 100 yards away in that picture.

That's a very nice picture. :)

I hope you had a nice time, Mullet. By the way... what was the thing that you enjoyed the most about Japan? :cool:

I actually enjoyed the sheer number of people in Tokyo and how built up it was. It was just mindboggling. But then again when you have 20+ million people in the space of Manhatten you have to be creative to fit everyone in. But even with that many people everything was so efficient and never felt crowded. I was pretty wild.

That temple looks pretty cool, and it's a nice photograph as well. I'm sure that if I don't end up living there, I'll at least visit Japan many times throughout my life.

Sounds pretty crazy... but fun. :D I've never actually thought about how overpopulated Japan is. :cool:

Yeah, apparently only 10% of Japan's land is actually inhabitable due to the fact that it's a dormant rugged volcano chain.

Luckily I took the Golden Pavilion picture at a high resolution. Hoping it will blow up to a nice 5x7 or even bigger.

No earthquakes. At least none that I could feel.
