I recently went to Maebashi, a neighboring town of Takasaki, and was greeted by empty streets--w.t.f?

Where were the hot, slender Japanese women? Where were the men in business suits dripping wet from the humdity? Where were the hot, slender Japanese women?! The streets were a veritable ghost town, which led me to believe I was in time for an upcoming yakuza shoot out. After I realized that this was maybe te way of life here, I calmed down, chugged an American Coffee and took to to the streets. I was in search of anything amusing, serious or breathing. Speaking of the living, I did meet a steadfast catapiller intent on climbing this tree. I think she's beautiful. We exchanged numbers, I went back to Takasaki.



A fellow teacher/friend Scott works in Maebashi. Scott, buddy, I hope your entire town is not like this. Beer's on me, then lets tackle Maebashi, I know a great vending machine by the train station...
