Vehicular error
What you can see above is the typical mailbox in Japan. All the mail delivery vehicles are red too.
However, I did not put two and two together for a while and was convinced all the guys on motorbikes with red boxes on the back were pizza delivery guys.
Then the other day while sitting in class we heard a vehicle go buy playing ice cream truck-like music. We all perked up and started commenting about ice cream.
Then Osaka-sensei informed us that the music was actually from a trash truck. I’m glad she explained this because she likely saved some of us from chasing down one of these trucks and then being very disappointed.

LOL...And the ice cream might have been a little funny smelling as well. You are really going to be "street wise" by the time you return to the states! <3 Aunt Patti
