In Japan. Again?
In Japan. Again? Haha, no. What I want to do today is show you how some people aren’t really where they say they are.

Descanso Gardens
I had plans to go to Descanso Gardens. I just hadn’t planned on going the day I decided to go. I had on the wrong outfit. (How very LA of me to say such a thing! Lol) Honestly, I could care less how I looked, but my outfit’s material was soaking up every ounce of that sun’s warmth! It was unbearably hot for me. Fortunately, with Descanso Gardens being in La Canana Flintridge, by the mountains, it was a lot cooler, making my outfit appropriate overall.

Nagasaki’s Chinatown
If you’ve been to a decent Chinatown, whether that be somewhere in Asia or California, you’re not going to be all that thrilled with the Chinatown in Nagasaki. People seem to rave about it, yet it was just another Chinatown to me. Perhaps, I didn’t care for the “upscale” authentic Chinese food and modern buildings infused with Chinese architecture and decor. That or the fact there was no special event going on which made the Chinatown area look rather bland, save for its neon entrance sign.

Nagasaki’s Megane Bridge aka Spectacles Bridge
There’s a popular bridge in Nagasaki, called Megane Bridge or Spectacles Bridge. While it may seem like just another bridge, there’s a reason why this specific bridge is popular. The bridge has been around since 1634 and actually looks like spectacles. As long as you view the bridge from a place where the river shows a clear reflection of the bridge, you’ll be treated to the sight of spectacles. It might not seem like a biggie for us, but it probably was a big deal to people in the past.

Traveling without Deodorant
You can be the greatest packer in the world yet somehow forget to bring that one body essential along with you on a trip: deodorant. How can you forget deodorant, you ask? Let’s just say it can happen. Even when it’s packed, you might find yourself in need of new deodorant if your deodorant fails to function the way it should once in a different environment. So, if you find yourself in need of deodorant but the country you’re in doesn’t sell the deodorant you need or worse, doesn’t even have it in stock, this blog post is for you.
