Random thoughts about Japan

Posted by on September 30, 2008
  • How do Japanese people stay thin with so many fried foods?
  • Is it always so rainy? Is is always so humid?
  • Why do women wear such ridiculous high heels? Even climbing mountains?
  • Why are drinks so expensive in restaurants? A Coke or coffee is 1000 yen (about $10 USD) in a restaurant but 150 yen (about $1.50 USD) in a vending machine.
  • Do workers at 7-Eleven and McDonald’s earn minimum wage here, too? They seem so happy, I would think they’re paid alot.
  • Where do they golf? There are a ton of driving ranges.
  • Why are dogs and cats so expensive? We stopped by a pet store in Tokyo and the cheapest cat was $950 and dogs were $5000! They will also rent dogs by the hour.
