So Close

To start a long rant about Japanese umbrella habit; one drop of rain and it is a must. When not raining, waving them back and forth while walking. It is a miracle that not more kasa casualties are reported in Tokyo on rainy days.

But then, one of those "I cannot walk straight even if my life depended on it" (and just as a warning someday it could very well come to that) walked into me when I passed by her. I think she got a little bit scared herself (good!) and then I got a long gomeeeenasai, sumimasen!!!" Which made me smile. So all good. And then at the 24 hour open store with a brilliant selection (for ex, the have feta cheese), the service was splendid as usual.
