Growing in popularity in Japan are 100 yen stores, much like US dollar stores
where you can get all sorts of cheap stuff.

They've got video telescopes at the top of the mountain. This one has been
aimed at our church! The arrows, from left to right are: 1) Large classroom,
where advanced classes are taught, 2) main gathering room where English
classes meet for worship and snacks on weekdays and where church has lunch
on Sundays, 3) the chapel building.
At the top of the mountain is a memorial/shrine to commemorate Japanese
soldiers who died in Malaysia. I found it interesting that juxtaposed next
to this place of spirit/ancestor worship is a second tower of modern media
and commercialism that is equally, if not more, worshipped by the general
population.
