like this buy or no buy? if you are in Japan.
Cheap no middleman added cost flight and tax.
Buy...without radio receiver... you can buy, cause those FM frequency are for Japan domestic. so careful.
-
Over there their system is using NTSC, over here is PAL.
so this no buy...and voltage probelm. cheap cheap, just see only.

Taiyaki hearsay this originate from as early 1900's inTokyo. "Tai" meaning Japanese name of sea beam, "Yaki" as like many Japanese dishes mean to grill.
So Taiyaki...is a kind of pancake shape of a fish and with read bean paste filling inside.
This symbol of good fortune as told cause of the fish shape. better than those round ones similar, and are popular throughout Japan.

What is so special about this?
If you got a chance to stay at any Japanese home... here there is a story to tell.
this video.
-
standard all are the same.
-
Why? cause i went there several times stayed at their home, and this is alway there same hospitaliy treatment given by them, even Suzuki san friend house recently, I didnt know him well cause frist time, still the same senerio.
First the water at the bathtub alway remain clean as all members of the household will use the same bath water as a mean of conserving water and energy. to heat up the water of the bathtup need electricity and costly.
The woman of the house will get ready the bathtubwater heated and all the necessary preparation..... before dinner is serve.
-
There are two "don't"s regarding the bath.
Do not drain the hot water after your usage!
Do not wash your body in the tub.
Japanese bath has a deep bath tub and washing space.
You can dip your body in it.
We shares same hot water for a night with everyones inthe house.
So please wash your body and legs before getting into the hot tub.
Wash your body at the washing space. -
Try a Japanese bath...so basically two steps of doing it, bathtub water is for relaxing to just soak in the hot water as long as you like.. as on the video shown.....after a long day's work, normally they do this at home during the night.
