Day One Observations - Tokyo
- Where are the giant robots?
- Number One Phrase We Should Have Learned Before Coming: "This System Is Not Intuitive"
- They have beer ... IN THE VENDING MACHINES! Their civilization truly is far more advanced than ours.
- On the day we arrived, the city was holding its annual fireworks display and we had an amazing view of it from our hotel room. It was great ... for the first half-hour. Let me tell you, anything more than 30 minutes of fireworks is overkill. Unless you've got some spiffy new kind of firework (Magic Eye holographs, Hello Kitty logos, giant robots, etc.), a half-hour is fine. Trust us.
More later,
A&S

They also have hot drinks in vending machines, too. I was in Japan in 2000, and at the time, their vending machines were several years ahead of ours.
And yet we still don't have beer and hot coffee in vending machines here. We just keep falling further and further behind in the vending machine gap!
