Countdown to Japan

I am off to Japan for the very first time this summer! I am a huge otaku (otaku=geek in japanese) and have been dying to go for years, so this is a blog to "revise" and share my knowledge of the Land of the Rising Sun

Japan in…149 days

Random Fact

Petrol stations are quite different over there. You can only guess they're petrol stations because they have two guys who wave like mad when you drive your car in. Which can look like they want to assault you. But no, just look up and TA-DA! petrol pumps! Because in Japan, petrol falls from the sky! So you stop your car beneath one, hand over your keys and the two guys do the rest. By the rest, I mean they fill the car up, clean the windscreen (inside and out), and loads of other little charming things.

But if in the West, shoes collect the last few drops, do heads collect them in Japan?
