Our third day in Tokyo was definitely tough on my poor feet, but we did get a lot of opportunity to practice some basic politeness using today’s #japan word of the day:
ありがとうございます
or arigatoo gozaimasu (the u on the end is silent) which means a kind of polite and formal thank you, and a phrase that you often hear and say when interacting with services and vendors. A sincere nod of the head or light bow has been getting us lots of smiles, too.

A video recap of day two, tho I’m not really prioritizing video on this trip, so it’s just snippets of the most eye catching bits.
Your #japan phrase of the day is:
私もつま
or watshi mo tsuma which means “my wife” as in “I am travelling with my wife” or “my wife lost her usb charging cable on the plane and i had to buy her a new one at the convenience store at 6 am yesterday morning.” [read more...]
