Day 2 - Nagoya World Expo 2005
On day 2, we ventured to the 2005 World expo. It took about 40 minutes of trains to get there, but it wasn't too bad. Once there it was, once again, boiling outside. We'd go from one country exhibit to another, often in search of an air-conditioned building looking for some respite from the heat. We had fun, though. At the end of the day, we walked through the gardens to see Satsuki and Mei's house - a life-size recreation of the house in "My Neighbor Totoro". A few days later, in Kamakura, we found a store devoted to the movie and got lots of Totoro memorabilia.

This is where we learned that some Japanese feel that the lighter your skin is the better. Very few people wear shorts and many women wear full arm length gloves when outside to keep their skin from getting tan.
