Japan, wow! The sights you will see! I baby sat for a Japanese woman while she took her English classes. She gave me the most beautiful doll after she was done. It was gorgeous!
Oh the material you will see ! I hope you can visit a grocery store, a fabric store, a library. Everyday places too. I am always curious about other countries and how they live. Wonder if more open markets or groceries ?
Please, let us know about your August trip!

I've been to Japan before and had a blast.
A friend of mine spent 3 hours just walking around a grocery store looking at the things that were in there. The spice aisle was awesome. I even bought some I had no clue what to use them for, such as laurel.
My friend that is there now, went walking thru one and took all sorts of pictures, including about 8 different types of Pringles chips. lol
I've never been to a fabric store there, but my friend is going to look for one before I get there. Her and I and the kids will have fun. She is also going to take me to this spa place that has coffee, wine, juice and all sorts of "baths" that you can sit and soak in. They also have the Fish Doctor. You put your feet in the water and these little fish eat the dead skin and stuff off your feet. I'm sure I'll probably scream on that one.
I'll make sure I take lots of pictures and if I don't, my friend ALWAYS has her camera "at the ready". ;)
