      But there are many genuinely amazing moments where I can at least get the *gist*. Walking through the otherwise completely incomprehensible bookstore with it was like having a lens with superpower, like glasses that made *information* naked.

      Today in a restaurant, the waitress tried to ask me something, and I had no idea. She tried so hard, brought a piece of paper with tons of Japanese, nothing. And then I had the idea to point Translate at it. Turns out and was asking me about my allergies.

      A few times I showed others Google Translate they were really impressed; perhaps the only time *I* appeared cool and advanced during this trip. (Otherwise I mostly feel like the attached surreal vignette I witnessed today.)pic.twitter.com/4fdAc1BgUJ

      196. Speaking of restaurants, I love little moist hand towels that are always there waiting for you – and also added to your bag whenever you buy food from grocery stores or bakeries. So refined!pic.twitter.com/pTVIpBGdcG

      197. If the place is not using a ticketing system or you don’t order at the country, often they’d bring my bill to me immediately, and then I went to the register to pay on the way out.pic.twitter.com/ZGDuwkt9G9

      199. It was interesting that when listing emergency numbers, marine accidents and incidents were as high priority as ambulance, fire, and police. (From a phone booth. There are phone booths!)pic.twitter.com/iL9l9QANrm

      200. There are tons of little delightful melodies. I made a compilation video of a few on the subway and other trains – particularly there, a particular melody can identify a train or a station as you’re traveling.

      (Even the washer/dryer in my hotel played a little melody when it started and when it ended its job. It was such a surprise I wasn’t prepared to record it.)

      My (Japanese) rice cooker does this and the music is so cute + quirky that we've made a little dance to perform every time it plays 😊
