For the longest time, I couldn't understand why so many tourist pedestrians got clocked by cars! It happened at least weekly. Then, I went to Japan... and tried crossing the street. Lightbulb moment, just as you say.<br /><br />Driving on the opposite side of the street takes a little getting used to. The danger comes when you return to the States. I got back to the states after several months abroad, and came to an intersection and completely didn't know what to do! Frozen, stuck, confused. and embarrassed. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to following your adventure.<br /><br />Lisa<br />(Kayakeverywhere - Flickr)Lisahttp://www.flickr.com/photos/lisakayaks/noreply@blogger.com
