    Back in the days, before there were cell phones, I travelled across Japan, and I ate a lot of Vending machine food, I rarely knew what I was getting, sometimes it was good, sometimes not. But the experience, has lasted a lifetime. I still have my dog-eared, beat up, Japanese to English translation book, and a little device I bought, that would translate spoken English to Japanese, and Japanese to English, that I bought in Tokyo

    One thing I found interesting about Japan, as it speaks volumes about the people in general. There are open shops in that have no staff. Usually, they sell produce. The customer takes what they want and leave the money. Basically, it's on an honour system, and the vast majority of Japanese people comply with the system. That said, I think you deposit the money into a locked box. Let's face it, Japanese people may be honest, but they're not stupid. Free money tempts us all, regardless of race. 🤣
