Signs Signs Everywhere Signs

In Japan it is illegal to smoke and walk. There are several reasons for this, like to keep children from being burned. Another is that if you are walking the smoke can go any where. The last seems to be that smokers walking are more likely to just throw down the butt. There are a lot of signs about this kind of thing. They are in Japanese and odd, not quite wrong, but odd English. The diagrams though are what really make them so I hope that you enjoy this small tribute. Tune in next time for some Engrish.

Samantha's Return and Ueno Zoo

Samantha has gone back to America. Before she left we went to the Ueno Zoo in Tokyo. It was really fun. They have so many different animals. The pandas were the most popular by far. My favorite though was seeing the tigers. Samantha loved to see the red pandas.
サマンサはアメリカに帰りました。帰った前に私達は上野動物園に行きました。動物園はとても楽しかったです。色々な動物いっぱいです。パンダは一番人気です。私はトラ一番好きです。サマンサはレッサーパンダが大好きです。
