Hey, good for them if they can enjoy swimming in pools like those at Toshimaen. Me, I'll opt for slightly more sanitary choices and avoid the swimmer's ear and skin infections. And no, I'm not a germophobe but I wouldn't share bathwater with a bunch of complete strangers either. Some…

Oh, and you'd be amazed at what blue paint on the sides and bottom of a pool can do to make otherwise disgusting water appear clean and refreshing!

I don't know what Yomiyuri land is like but I went to Toshimaen for the first and last time last summer. It was overcrowded, there appeared to be no regulations as to how many people could be in one pool at a time and the concept of adult supervision seemed…

And you would know that none of them suffer from back, knee, or other health problems how exactly? Face it, Japanese may think sleeping on the floor is the cat's meaow but plenty of other people find it to be uncomfortable and silly. It's sleep. It matters if you're to…

Actually, it says people were sent to Noborestu since there weren't enough facilities in the original place and that many of the rooms had previously been converted to those with beds. It sounds like piss poor planning all around to me and people have a right to complain if they…

Everytime I read something like this story it makes me laugh thinking of all the times I've heard or read what "delicate" tastebuds the Japanese have and how discerning Japanese consumers are.

cleo: But they didn't, did they? And that is the larger point, but choose to miss it if you like. As for whether or not these guys can imagine hardship, I don't know that and doubt you do either. They may come from priviliged backrounds or they may have come…

Sorry, to disagree but when you sleep on the floors in those countries it is because you "have to" not because it is the chosen way of sleeping. No one would have suggested that Merkel, Sarkozy, Bush or those traveling with them sleep on tatami so why in the world…

zenbuilder: But being out of sight and hearing inside the house is as good as being outside the house. You agree?
He may agree with you but I certainly don't. If you're in the house, you ought to be watching the kids as closely as possible. Kids are difficult, especially…

frontandcentre: Again, I said I don't know about Yomiyuriland but was speaking of Toshimaen, which sorry, but I doubt passed even one health check and if it did, then quite frankly the checks themselves are pure rubbish. The filters surrounding the pools smell very strongly of mildew and there is…
