It's Christmas! Some cute stuff from the supermarket

Went to the supermarket yesterday and saw all these Christmassy packaging I had to take photos -tourist-

Jagabee! Honestly, I prefer jagalico but the mascots were too cute!

And caramel corn too! I forgot to take a picture so I grabbed one off google. 

Cute huh! And I found this too. I think this was last year's version. Caramel Corn staring at each other hahaha, oh japan!

And Goodie bags!!

Anpanman stocking! I would have wanted this as a kid. 

Random fact: Anpanman holds the record for having the largest number of characters in a cartoon series in the Guiness Book of World Records. Which is, by the way according to Wikipedia, 1768 characters. Crazy huh! I would have thought that Pokemon had the most, lol. 

I don't think these christmas versions actually made me want to buy these products any more than usually do, I still prefer jagalico to jagabee, but it was sure fun and festive just looking at them! :D

It's fall!

Some of you might have seen some of these pictures on my facebook page already, but I just wanted to share some of my favourites of the photos I've taken so far :)

First are pictures from my trip to Yamanashi

Stunning view of mount fuji. I can totally see why the Japanese people love it so much!

Fallen leaves framing a pond :) 

癒しの里 (Iyashi no Sato) Really beautiful and calm place

Took a stroll in Ueno park last week :) 

Love how street performances are so lively in Japan. The kids were also too cute! One of the boys (the one in the orange sweater) kept running to pick up whatever the performer dropped , haha.

Steps leading to sunset. I love how traditional architecture mixes into the city in Tokyo, and I think this is a great example of that. I love how the building in the background contrasts and accentuates the traditional beauty of the shrine.

Lights along Meguro River

Sakura in winter!

And last but not least school :) 

Almost looks like a heart! ... so I tried making it into one XD

Hope you enjoyed the pictures as much as I did taking them! :)
