Let's take a break from cars and change up the pace for a second...

I stopped inside Ginza's famous Toy Park toy store in search of my gift. Out front of the store they were selling Ramune sodas. You all know about Ramune right? It's the Japanese equivalent of Sprite that comes in a bottle with a marble lodged in the neck.

Anyways, they were selling limited edition Ramune flavors including caramel flavor and curry flavor. I just couldn't help myself, I bought a curry flavored Ramune and gulped it down. It was quite good. It tasted sort of like a spiced apple cider mixed with cream soda. I chatted with the Japanese woman selling the sodas as I drank. She wanted to know what it tasted like since she was too afraid to try one for herself.
