For those of us who have not visited Japan...

Being a collector of these machines, and hosting a Japanese student each year, I have put Japan on my "Must visit before I die" list. I don't think it will be too difficult to convince the wife we need to go there one day.

Here's a nice photoset of Osaka. I had no idea they also celebrated Halloween...

I have had to travel to Japan for work-related purposes over the past couple of years.

I was in Japan for Halloween last year and it is not at all what I would call our traditional 'trick or treat' type event here in the states, but a lot of the younger kids in the larger cities defintely do dress up. Often, very impressively!

Fun stuff!
