☆ Only in Japan

日本の興味深いシーン。
日本人には普通でも、海外の方には興味深い、
そんなシーンをクリスティーナが書いてくれました。

Only in Japan you can find many types of Fanta drinks,
every year there's seasonal drinks, such as golden kiwi
flavor, honey-lemon flavor, banana yoghurt flavor,etc.
Nothing's too crazy here in Japan to experience! Only in
Japan you can find plastic umbrella covers to protect
the stores from getting wet. Only in Japan do people
wait at the street crossings, and not go jay walking.
Only in Japan are there wonderful electric toilets with
lots of interesting features to choose from. Only in
Japan can you find parks without grass, but are usually
gravel, dirt or cement instead. Only in Japan can cell
phones be used for banking and ticket gate passes.
Only in Japan can you find a mixture of many beans
in food, such as bread, cakes, cookies and rice. Japan
is becoming the only country in the world left for a
different experience of adventure and fun, where you
can travel on a train late at night and not feel scared.
May be that is one reason so many foreigners enjoy
living in Japan...because it creates opportunities that
you can only do here!

jay walk - 交通規制を無視して横断する

日本でだけ、かどうかは分かりませんが、
少なくともオーストラリアでは見ない風景のようですね。
携帯が銀行や駅で使えてしまうのは、今や日本では日常風景ですが
電話としてしか携帯を使用しない国の方にとっては
驚愕の光景！？なのでしょうか・・・。
便利な世の中になったものです。
