Origin Bento shop window. Origin Bento is the biggest bento chain store in Japan. Bento is food prepared in some kind of lunch box. At the beginning I used to like the bento thing but I kind of got tired of it. What is cool about Origin Bento is that you can also “design” your own bento inside the store, choosing what you want in each part of the container.

That ofuro is pretty cool. I’m surprised at how much free water there is that can just be pumped up out of the ground like that.
I’m curious about the maid poster. I wonder why Japan was spelled out like that, in hiragana, as the Western word for Japan.
we have something similar to the last picture in the metros of paris 🙂
