went several years ago and have forgotten too much!

Akihabera is the electronics Mecca...

Roppongi is like Soho - vibrant and sleezy in equal parts.

Don't expect taxis to take you anywhere unless it's famous even if you have the address...

Do eat everything - go to a small backstreet tempura bar - though avoid the raw chicken livers I had....

jeez, some people are soooo touchy

OK, OK,. .....Here's some stuff to bear in mind when visiting Japan

A can of Coca-Cola costs more than one dollar US from a vending machine.

Japanese people, in general, can't drive very well.

Restaurants in Japan (including many fast-food places) give you moist towels or wipes before or with your meal.

At many businesses in Japan, they offer alcohol to the employees after six pm.

It is usually mandatory to give a landlord a gift of money of $1,000-$2000 when moving into his apartment building.

On Respect for the Aged Day, tobacco companies will hand out free cigarettes to the elderly outside of train stations and department stores.

The Japanese love corn, sesame seeds, and mayonnaise on their pizza.

There are no 24 hour ATMs in Japan (closed on holidays and many only open during normal bank hours).

Many Japanese teachers think that Japanese parents are lazy.

The green traffic light is called "blue".
