    ichigo Strawberry Bus Stops

    There are fruit-shaped bus stop shelters scattered along highway 207 in Nagasaki, Japan, including strawberries, melons, watermelons, tomatoes, and oranges. Obviously, the strawberry shelters are the cutest!

    Isahaya city's website states that these shelters were inspired by the pumpkin carriage in the Cinderella fairytale.

    :kauberry:

    Through Google maps I traveled down 207 in "street view" until I had seen all three strawberry shelters. Here they are!

    From northeast to southwest:

    You didn't try to pet it did you? I hear they can be quite savage if not properly trained.

    You need to play along so you can keep her amused, Bunny.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.
