So many photographers at the Taj *avoid* putting random tourists in the scene, but why? It's so much more interesting to see everything that is really going on - I feel like I'm there!

I was shocked at how much I loved traveling there, and I can't wait to go back. For people who enjoy skiing, I would add SNOW to the list. The powder is unlike anywhere I have ever been. I'm still dreaming about it! Toilets and food were definitely so high on my longgg list of things I loved about Japan. I was shocked at how much I loved traveling there, and I can’t wait to go back.

It's like when you buy a really nice bottle of wine and you want to save it for the right occasion...only I'm not sure what occasion would call for $10 green tea Kit-Kats =) Confession: I still haven’t actually tried any of the Kit-Kats yet!

Actually, I have always been somewhat interested in Japan, but two things put me off: the cost, and the whaling situation. I know it might sound petty to some, but I disagree so strongly with the way the Japanese government is handling whaling and violating/manipulating international whaling laws that it would hamper my ability to enjoy a trip there. At the moment I'm also trying to avoid buying Japanese products... my one woman boycott! As usual, you are making me dream of destinations I never really considered!

I love me some sweet potato flavoring as well. In china I found blueberry flavored Lays. Weird. Um, the little logo of a butt being sprayed is the funniest thing ever.

Wow, guess I'm not eating enough candy bars. (Hooked on dark chocolate kisses.) The rest of the food looks inviting. I like the smaller portions idea. Either you can ingest less or eat more of a variety. Like the sweet potatoes, which I just love, along with the squash. But really, in a candy bar or ice cream? Guess I'd try it too.
