Okinawa’s Churaumi Aquafium was the world’s largest until 2005, this main tank holds 1.98M gallons of water? The glass 60cm / 24 inches thick. Larger aquariums are no.2 Dubai Mall and no.1 Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. #onlyinjapan #aquarium
3-2-1 JUMP!! … oh, Mom jumped on 1 again 🤣 🌸🌸🌸
Japan’s Giant Snow Wall corridor opens mid-April along the Tateyama-Kurobe Alpine Pass and goes on until June. The walls are over 20m high / 66ft and seeing the bus drive through the corridor is kind of funny and surreal. It’s an hour from Toyama Station and worth a visit. #japan #snowwall #tateyamakurobealpineroute

Tokyo’s Cherry Blossom Season started strong today — a national holiday, Ueno Park was packed, the Sakura blossoms 50% bloomed. Events back like 2019. Tomorrow and this week brings rain so fingers crossed the city gets another dry day like this. Dominos JP was delivering to Hanami-goers! Wow (video at the end) #uenopark

Happy Mother’s Day! 👩🏻 Leo picked out super red flowers this year — because it reminds him of an ambulance 🚑 his favorite car (right now). I didn’t tell Kanae about that 😂🌹

I went back to school today! Thank you to the wonderful seniors at Okayama Minami High School 岡山南高校 for introducing their school culture to me and ONLY in JAPAN ٩(^‿^)۶ 🎌
I may not get my hat back 😳 The Somei Yoshino Sakura 🌸 Blossoms are at their end. If the wind doesn’t blow it away 🌬️ or the rain doesn’t wash it away, it’ll be the fresh green leaves shooting out! But just maybe, we’ve got 3 more days on the back end including this weekend 😁 who’s in #tokyo enjoying it right now?
Japan’s most beautiful tree is a 1000 year old Takizakura waterfall cherry blossom in Miharu, Fukushima seen here from 2km away. The area around the tree hasn’t always been this beautiful but the tree itself hasn’t change much in last couple of hundred years. It connects so many generations in Miharu. It’s at full blooms now until … catch it while you can.
Shinjuku’s alleys are an experience and Omoide-Yokocho is a must-visit. It’s no longer a must-eat since many shops have changed owners, quality is not the same (nor the prices) but walking through there, even in the afternoon, is like going back in time. These shacks came up after WWII from necessity and have evolved a little but still feels like the old Showa era. The name means “memory lane” but had been called “piss alley” in its prime … wonder why 😂 you’ll find more tourists than locals but your photos will be incredible! Golden Gai (old shack bars) is nearby and places like Shinbashi, Okachimachi offer an option to old school outdoor urban eating. In modern Japan though, it’s not common anymore. #shinjuku #omoideyokocho #goldengai #onlyinjapan

Do you know the story of John Manjiro? Google it. This is the landing spot in Okinawa where he returned to Japan after living in the US. His whole life was — well, he was destined for great things and his impact on Japan is sometimes overshadowed, but the story is unforgettable.
