Heaven on Earth


Sekitei - synonymous with "paradise." Food is amazing, the people are incredibly hospitable, the place is beautiful and you're spoiled rotten in every way you can think of. It ain't cheap, but it's worth it. www.sekitei.to

Ditto on this one. I haven't seen English this nonsensical in a long time! The caption on the bottom-left says "A Clever Dog."

If this shirt had not been made of really scratchy, cheap material, I would have bought it in a heartbeat.

This is one of my favorite parts of my tours - this is a REAL maiko (apprentice geisha) in her final year of training.
She will become a geisha (known as "geiko" in Kyoto) at the end of this year. Her skills in tea ceremony are excellent.
Graceful, charming and adorable - a little doll come to life. うつくしい、でしょう!?
