kenleewrites in 日本

I didn’t take too many photos at the aquarium. I kinda forgot about taking photos once I was inside because I was busy trying to read up on the exhibits. It’s just like food. Sometimes you get so carried away with eating, you forget to take photos (if you ever take photos of food before you eat). Besides, it’s somewhere you want to visit firsthand, not from photos. ^^.

I did take some photos from shows. There’s the uogokoro show where a diver will introduce some fishes to the audience and the dolphin shows.

It wasn’t exactly the best day to be at the beach, but at least it didn’t rain. Surfers all waiting to catch a wave. Kinda reminds me of my time in Sydney.

This is Enoshima Beach in Shonan. Not very far from Yokohama. About 40km south. It’s a nice place to just go chill and enjoy the sea breeze.

I love my iPhone and I also love Japan. The two have so much in common. For example, on the iPhone, “there’s an app for that”. In Japan, “there’s a mag(azine) for that”. ^^.

There’s a magazine for almost everything in Japan. From magazines that teach you how to make your own Hackintosh to magazines about onsens, about the best places to eat, gadgets, how-tos etc. Of course, only in Japanese though.

I don’t usually walk through and browse magazines for her, but I was walking through that fateful day and this caught my eye. It’s a magazine for dishes that she wants to cook for her boyfriend. 「作ってあげたい」translates to something like “I want to make for you”. 「彼ごはん」is “boyfriend food”.

Must be popular since it’s the sixth volume! 124 pages worth of recipes!

彼女：ふたりごはんって幸せ〜♥ (I’m happy to be eating with you)
彼：おいしいね♥ (It’s yummy)

You know what they say, the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. But they also talk of the female doctor who made a mess during a heart operation because she started from the stomach. O_O

I’m easy to please. Fill me up and I’m happy. How about you? …or your man? ^^.

I’ll buy you coffee at a very interesting cafe nearby if you can tell me where I saw this. ^^.

Always one for everything.
