My favorite part of Japan were the people, who to a person were friendly, helpful and polite. Made me wonder what the hell happened to the US. I've attached a video of some of the sacred deer in Nara - even they are polite, bowing to ask for food! The country itself is beautiful once you get out of the congested cities. Maybe because it is mostly forested mountain - that's what you get for being a volcano. Below are photos of the Nijo-jo castle in Kyoto and an anti-anxiety spray I found in my hotel room that I thought I'd appreciate.
