I went hiking with a friend of mine recently. We rode our bikes about an hour to the east side of Fukuoka and hiked to the top of a mountain. I took just a few pictures, but recorded a lot more (which I don’t have online). It’s called Tachibanaiyama or Touchybunny or something, I don’t remember, but the top has an amazing view of city of Fukuoka Japan.

Took a picture of this bag at a department store.

An animal and relations will become good.
Animals are alive with nature.
It is a friend wholly.

Add a “Booyah!” and you’ve got an awesome bag!

Sounds like a name from the Sopranos! I don’t know who Tony Tanaka is, but he looks serious and I’m assuming his beauty school kicks major ass. It has to, he’s right there in your face saying he’s Tony Tanaka and this is his school! I pass by this sign every day so it deserves props.

Cold noodles are awesome. You take them out of the cold water, dip it in the sauce, and enjoy. Add  perfectly boiled egg, fruit, and vegetables, and you’ve got an energizing meal! I’d say cold noodles are in the top 10 of my favorite Japanese foods.

I thought this was funny name for a convenience store. It makes me picture a really large area with green grass instead of this really tiny shop.

Update: Jyankee is right, it’s a shoe store! And I happened to find a small sized location.

It feels like half the grocery store is dedicated to fish. And the price is always right in Japan!

Fresh sliced fish perfect for grilling

Egg stuffed fish... I stay away from this. I don't like the exploding eggs when you chew it.

Tiny fish, great for a yakitori style dinner. Slap it on a stick, grill it, eat it just like that.

Now let’s work on getting some Chicago style pizza cookin’ in the bakery Mr. Grocery Store! If they had a suggestion box I’d be dropping notes every day. Non-seafood-non-mayo pizza, big steak, some Diet Dr. Pepper please and thank you.

After a late night of working, just a few hours of a sleep, waking up to a clean desk with cute love notes is great. Walking into the kitchen with a few things of iced coffee ready to go and more notes is even better! I love waking up to things like this.

We found a sushi restaurant that serves fresh fish daily. Dinner costs a person no less than 3000 Yen and can easily run 5000. But lunch is a steal! For 1000 Yen you get this tray of fresh sushi, soup, green tea, and a fruit desert that feels like you’re eating clouds of happiness. This is one of the many reasons I really like Japan.

Besides the last picture, the quality isn’t bad for a 2 megapixel camera phone.
