This morning on a walk I saw three people dressed in traditional Japanese garb bidding ado to a guy in a taxi. They bowed, then bowed deeper, then more deeply as the guest pulled away from the curb. They continued bowing and looking after him as he drove away and was out of sight – – which allowed me enough time to get up to them, take a photo without them knowing it, and interrupt their bowing time since they were on the side of the road, right where I was to walk. Interesting behavior and I’d like to learn more. Also, would like to know more about why the Japanese traditionally sit at little tables either on the floor or on little chairs? So much to learn…
