  2. When you can't even be bothered to write the name of your sister city or its prefecture correctly...

  3. Happy Sunday from Japan! Heading into the city for a café lunch later. 🚶‍♂️
    Today’s new photo on my website is some medium-format film photography from Gannenji, a calm temple in Kanazawa.

  4. I've officially started editing and exporting my #Japan travel photos.

    This image is from the Samurai District of #Kanazawa, now a bustling urban street just off the main roads in the Downtown area. We did not get to visit it during the day, but even in the evening the mix of ancient with modern was curious as ever.

  6. Japan's ruling coalition has adopted a plan to extend the Hokuriku Shinkansen from the city of Tsuruga, Fukui Prefecture, to Osaka through Kyoto on a route that takes it near — but not directly to — Kyoto Station. japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/07/ #japan #society #rail #hokurikushinkansen #osaka #shinkansen #bullettrains #kyoto #tokyo #nagano #kanazawa

  7. The Kanazawa–Tokyo leg is my final journey along unfamiliar routes on the Hokuriku Shinkansen; after that, I’ll be spending just under two weeks acting as a guide for a friend in Tokyo and Osaka.
    Somehow it feels like I just arrived a week ago in Japan and have to leave already :*(

    By the way, on the Kanazawa–Tokyo route, the "old" onboard service with the beverage trolley is still in use.

  8. The best cleaning tool I've ever seen for removing black scuff marks from shoe soles.

    Tennis ball on a telescopic pole.
    Works like a charm!

  9. If you plan to climb Utatsuyama on a hot day, bring a waterbottle with you!
    There are no vending machines but you can refill at some waterstations.
    The views are worth it!

  10. Taking a rest in the shadows with some wind on Utatsuyama.
    My protection gear has to work hard today (UV head + neck protection + sleeves + airblower jacket).
    31°C does not sound much but with the sun burning down + high humidity the "RealFeel" is more correct.
    First time I had to turn my "blower jacket" on full power.

  11. Someone was too thick for the highly complex task.
    She/He could have also added that "Please Do Not Disturb" sign...
