Japan is one of my favorite countries to travel to. The last time I visited was
nearly a quarter-century ago. I was happy to see that traditions are alive
and well in Japan, like these young ladies wearing traditional kimonos.
They asked me to snap their photo and then to my amusement they all
struck the “shy Japanese girl pose”. It definitely made my day!
