Rain in Tokyo. Japan never ceases to amaze me with how polite people seem to be towards one another. I love how there is even umbrella etiquette on a rainy day. When you come close to someone walking with an umbrella they either lift it or lilt it to the side so as to not hit you. I can’t think of that really ever happening to me at home.

I really like this corner at the beginning of the tree-lined street, Omotesando. It always has a great collection of billboards on all four corners which gives me something fun to look at while I eat my yummy melon pan from Andersen Bakery. Mmm, the best baked goods.
