buses and river gods

Ok, Japan Cool! is now back and cooler than ever.

I'll keep it short since Clark is ripping apart a box with crackers in it(they are in bags, so we are ok).

I love the kindergarden buses here. Kindergarden is separate from Grade School, you graduate and then go to Elementary School. So the Kindergardens have their own buses. They are usually painted with fun characters, are bright colors, and little kid sized in general. We like to wave at them.
Here are some cute examples




The other fun thing, is when we go for walks, our friend tells her son not to throw rocks in the river because it will anger the river god, hows that for a detourant?
