Hello or こんにちわ to my Newsvine friends and others. I was glad to have been given the opportunity to travel to distant lands. I stayed in Tokyo for slightly less than a month. So my next few posts for the photography group will involve the photos in sections to avoid having them in one large article. This one will be slightly smaller since it is the introduction. Specifically I stayed in Bunkyo, Tokyo with one of my Japanese friends and her family.
So this particular photo was when I went to Ginza which is a district of Tokyo. I went there for some shopping. I got a nice shirt, scarf, and some foods from an open shop specializing in foods from Hokkaido.
Look, it's bento. I like it. Usually it is quite elaborate in such places as grocery stores. Even the stores in Japan are better than America's stores. I like how shopping happens there. Far superior to clumsy American way.
I decided to take a photo of a few vending machines. See them? They are Japanese vending machines. That means they are better than the weak vending machines in most American places. And Japanese people observe politeness. Don't walk around while eating/drinking. Consume your things where you buy them! Oh and this was in Bunkyo on my way to another area that you will see later!
To conclude, this is a photo I took at the Japan Bank Museum. I couldn't take photos anywhere except the lobby so I had one for the giant ancient "coin" thing they had on display from some island. The museum was very interesting. I learned about coinage history.
