    Is that one of those "Michelle Obama" school lunches I keep hearing about?

    The iconic Japanese box lunch otherwise known as the "Ekiben" as a specific type of bento sold at train stations (eki) in Japan.

    Katsu served at the restaurant. (In this instance a breaded beef, rather than pork cutlet, selection.)

    @1northcoin -

    Do you have some good pictures of a Japanese Sushi meal?

    From earlier this month during the First Week of April:

    View and Listen to the Soothing Waters of an Open Air Onsen Public Bath under the Cherry Blossoms in Hakone Japan

    Located within the historic and renowned Sangetsu Gardens of Yoshiike Ryokan in Hakone Japan, this Onsen Public Bath is fed by the volcanic created and thermally heated mineral waters that flow into it.

    Above the bathing waters Sakura (Cherry Blossoms) laden branches frame an idyllic setting.

    Listen to the bubbling flowing water and view the cherry blossoms for a shared minute of serenity.

    Can you find the darting Koi as you share an early April morning visit to Hakone Japan's Sangetsu Traditional Japanese Pond Garden with its stunning reflective mirrored waters?

    Over 1000 Koi (Colorful Japanese Carp) are distributed in the seven ponds at Sangetsu Japanese Pond Garden in Hakone Japan. Can you find the single white and the single orange colored Koi that make their appearance in this, the most impressive of the ponds?

    Share a full minute of peace and serenity as you watch and listen to the slightly rippling waters reflect the majestic trees which extend beyond the moss covered stones on the shore.

    Sangetsu Garden is found in the mountain valley adjacent to Yoshiike Ryokan that was preceded by the private residence and garden built by Mitsubishi Tycoon Iwasaki in 1904. Moved from a summer palace in Odawara, the teahouse of an early 1800s Tokugawa Shogun also graces the garden.

    Click and Enjoy 68 seconds of serenity and reflection:

    Nice picture, but it's just yard art.
    The hood probably open in the rear removable. The front end clip slid into place. No frame as it sits on the ground.
    Someone did that on purpose.
    Looks good in the picture and someone put some thought into it.

    Photoshopped? How could that have been placed there and it looks like tides would threaten.
