Hello UYDers,
A 2:20 minute short DSLR video of Japan that covers some of the stuff we love about Japan: vending machines, Totoro, trains, etc

Very cool video. Thank you for posting it.
Hi Hans. I still use that cup you gave me in Paris, almost every day.

Hi Stan, hi Fanfan,
that was a great time we shared in Paris together, and I will always remember
@Fanfan: since I have read your travel-log from your round-trip to Japan, I envy you this experience. If I ever will concretize my own trip to Japan - somewhen in the distant future
- I will certainly ask for your advice^^
regards
Hans

Ha, i remember well those time we spent together.
And I remember the second time I met Hans, where i had to escort him from one rail station to another, watch in hand...
Hans, there is so much things to see and do than what i saw and wrote about
