Japanese Pictures, Culture and People

So today I put my back pack on and set out for one of Japan’s truely well trodden tourist paths, Asakusa Tokyo. An area with a ‘higher than average density of temples’ and which certainly has it’s fair share of ‘omiyagi’ - souvenirs. I neglected to purchase any such gifts for my dear beloved friends and family back in Grand Bretania, perhaps my buttocks are stiffer than normal - you may argue I qualify for the salutation ‘tight arse’, certainly I have neglected to send any christmas cards nor purchase a single tacky and unwanted gift. However I’d say the best fare admist the bustle of brightly coloured plastic crap and festooned gifts was the freshly prepared grub, which of course would be in the later stages of decay by the time I could bring it back to the UK, so I dilligently elected to scoff some for myself.
