This is why I live here

This is why I live here, originally uploaded by Hack Rambler.

I was walking home this afternoon and stopped to take a picture. Before I knew it I was being asked if I would like to participate. I declined, and was then asked if I would like to have my picture taken. Nice people. I say "this is why I live here" because of the kindness of the Japanese people in general, and because the culture here is just so different than my own and therefore always interesting. I think that's a good thing.
