Impression of Japan

Since I have been to Japan before, this is not really my first impression of Japan. However, I have noticed many changes since I was here last. There has been a lot of construction, and many new buildings have gone up. Things also seem much less expensive than 4 years ago. I had been concerned that I would not be able to support myself on the AIEJ scholarship, but it has not been a problem at all. Of course, lots of things are still the same. Trains are still efficient and crowded, there are still lots of soft drink vending machines and pachinko parlors, and Tokyo is still full of interesting things to do.
