I don't remember when was the last time I experienced a typhoon in Japan. That was some wind wind and rain last night until early hours. What is amazing is that there is no power outage anywhere in Japan even when the typhoon moved across Japan.

You can purchase cigarettes on the street in Japan. There are still a lot of people who smoke in Japan. You can smoke in the restaurants too.

Japanese food for lunch

Oct

2

I am in Tokyo ... one of the largest cities in the world with the population of 12 million. The currency exchange is about 90 yen to an US$1. Which means yen is very strong. Even with that strong yen, you can have this lunch for 750 yen, or about $8.25. There is no tipping in Japan. So that is what you pay. It is a great meal ... if you like fish.
