Waffle Wall
There were many examples of concrete "waffle walls" like this.
Apparently the structure works well to prevent landslides or falling
rocks. There is a definite waffle look to them.

Fire Hydrant
Fire hydrants are commonly marked by signs, and manhole covers that
are often unique and well decorated.

Pepper Lunch in Yokosuka was fun. The plate is sizzling and the food
still cooking in front of you.

It can be important to have a cold beverage handy around such hot
dishes.

Trash Control
Japan is amazingly clean. One of the reasons seems to be
encouragement of personal responsibility for trash disposal,
including such things as diapers.
