They are all in their own world and "not in the face" of those around them.<br /><br />Random Thinker - I understand what you're saying. That's why it works, everybody not only knows the rules, they follow them... Because we mostly stay in the houses of my wife's aunts, we get to live like they do when we are there.. They are much more open in private settings. I'd move there in a minute if I had the chance. I did feel like I was always on display though. <br />thanks for commenting!Pat Tilletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17699973774273291205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3342874076830001076.post-6532868081378445522010-04-13T06:52:03.766-07:002010-04-13T06:52:03.766-07:00I never felt so out of place as when I was in Japa...I never felt so out of place as when I was in Japan.
