Well the night in question was not as crazy as it could have been, and this is all I'm saying on the matter, it did, however involve a few chicks. Yes they were hot. Many more japanese chicks with huge racks than I remember from the last time I visited Japan. I didn't spend any time in any big cities. I was mostly out in the country side on the Pacific coast. A lot of my pictures are in my other camera. Let me see what I can muster. I did, discover, however, that they made jello in the same flavor as my favorite Japanese beer.

Similar, but not nearly as enthusiastic about her job as your girl.
I took a pass because of her lack of enthusiasm.

Ok some pics I pulled from my iphone. First things first. The beer.

This flavor of Asahi was especially nice. They had the silver can, super dry asahi that you can get over here, but I've never seen this one, it has a higher alcohol content than the typical US beer. Oh yeah. This was purchased from a vending machine at the train station.


I've seen this can of Sapporo, but not this alcohol content over here. Mighty tasty. Again, this is from a train station vending machine.


Another vending machine favorite is this version of Sapporo. It's mighty tasty, and it's always the cheapest beer (unless there is a Suntori in there). This ended up being the beer I drank the most on this trip.


This is a flavor of my favorite Japanese beer. Yebisu (the "y" is silent). I had never seen this flavor until my brother-in-laws wedding. This picture was taken after the ninth hole at a golf course I played at.


Finally my favorite (hence the twelve pack of tall boys ) Gold label Yebisu. Good things seem to happen when I drink this beer.


It's so good, they turned it into jello. This however is not nearly as tasty as you would think. It took me about four of these things to come to that conclusion. I'm such a monkey.

Ok. Here you go. More iphone photos.

The Shinkansen pulling into the Shizuoka station.


Here's a shot I took alongside the train. I happen to like the way this one turned out.

From what I've heard Japanese beers costing .... those just set you back $40 USD
Or is it just in Tokyo that beer is $10 a can?

The vending machines range from 2-3.50 a beer. The twelver in the picture is actually 30 dollars, but they were tall boys.

I do have a few pics on my other camera. Many are family members (nieces and cousins by marriage) so I'm tempted not to post them, although, by all standards these chicks are smoking hot (just off limits for Maki). However, this camera is still with my wife who is still in Japan right now. When she returns I'll dig them off there. I have a few pics. All I have right now are my iphone pics.

Here's a pic of my favorite toilet and the control board that sits on the wall.

I don't think many pics were taken at the bachelor party (for reasons that are so obvious I don't need to explain).

If I had known what to expect, I would have brought a waterproof camera.
