Only in Japan

Disney, Snoopy, dinosaurs… Japanese adults seem to have a weird liking for children’s cartoons. I am getting sooo many compliments on the Hello Kitty socks I got from my Airbnb host! Nobody seems to have second thoughts about an adult wearing these. And what about the ‘motivational’ poster saying Mickey Mouse is the natural leader? These pictures were all taken in traditional Japanese Inns or homes in the skiing village. Judge for yourself… ?
