Here are some sights from around kobe in japan where we are staying

 

 

Absolutely terrible sunburn on my face this is thanks to the sun climbing mount fuji the other day

Japanese heinz tomato ketchup!

 

Not strictly japanese dining this was a western cafe

Experimental japanese research boat like something out of james bond. It uses electromagnetic jet engines just like the submarine did in the hunt for the red october movie, very clever technology, basically a silent stealth boat.

One day this will be my balcony and this will be my view, but hopefully sydney.
