Photos and Other Random Stuff

New photos up here. Some love hotels in Shibuya, Kathleen's school festival, and Nakayama park.

A Japanese politician was stabbed outside his home today - pretty important news, or so you would think. Headlining the news bulletin on NHK: the upcoming Japan series baseball. Talk about priorities.

Innocuous Japanese Ads

An innocuous Japanese ad... or is it??

Cool Japanese ads - gotta love 'em.

Almost as scary is thiswebsite - featuring the best (should that be the worst?) of foreign celebrities flogging off crap in Japan... We've seen Nicolas Cage playing the piano - no idea what he was advertising, but over here, the product definitely plays second fiddle to the celeb.

Salarymen

Article about the Japanese salaryman was in the weekend's SMH. Its hard to feel sorry for the buggers when they sit down on the trains and let the mums carrying kids stand.

A train company in Nagoya recently unveiled a new 'women-only' train car, to prevent groping that often happens on thecrowded peak-hour trains. Some discussion is here.

About

andrewandkathleen was meant to be a place to chuck our photos and diaries of our time in Japan. Since then it's transformed into a way of letting our friends and family know what we've been up to!

We've been together since high school, married since 2005. We've travelled and lived in different cities and different countries and are now trying to work out whether we're settling down or having a rest!
