Hi guys,

brekkie?
most of the shops there don't really open till 9am, if i remember correctly (i went quite early too, can see them opening)

correction, shops start business at 9am typically
just checked back my photos, i went there at 8.30 to "help" open shop

sony camera prices in Malaysia is actually quite competitive world-wide
as for lense, i've noticed there's a rather strong grey market supply for sigma and tamron in Malaysia which would mean that it can be quite a bit cheaper overseas and lost123 affirmed that with his observation

Some fruits are cheap in japan though. Now it's summer and I highly recommend that you guys try their peaches. It's one of the best i've ever tried. Extremely juicy and sweet and fresh. The skin can even be peeled off without using a knife.

I got mine at ameyoko market.

another recommendation would be champagne grapes which usually cost a bomb in malaysia but i got a small bunch for just 300 yen.

but i guess there are not many fruit lovers like me out there. People usually go other countries to try out food and desserts but rarely their local fruit.  sweat.gif laugh.gif

agreed! the peaches are awesome!
if got chance, go pick and eat straight from the tree. Did that in Hokkaido, along with cherries and plums
