Interesting observations / 見かけたこと

We don’t know when we can go back to Japan next. But until 2020, we visited our family every year. Sometimes we stayed in our family’s neighborhood in Saitama, sometimes hung out in Tokyo, or travelled in distant areas. We would like to share some interesting observations from those trips with you.
