Impression of Japan

This was not my first time coming to Japan.  I had lived in Japan for three years back in the early 1990's, so I want some what familiar with my surroundings.  On top of that, my Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother on my Dad's side of the family came over from Hiroshima, Japan.  So I have been introduced and exposed to Japan from a very early age, even though I am just a quarter Japanese.  But I cannot really remember what my intial impression was when I arrived here because I was roughly a year old.  When I was here in Japan previously, once I became older, I can remember a toy store that I loved going into as well as going to some temples with my family.  The thing that stuck out for me the most when I arrived here in Japan in August was driving on the other side of the road as well as the driver being on the other side of the vehicle.  This struck me as so wierd and foreign that I'm still not used to driving on the other side yet.  The other big impression that I have was how good Japanese drivers are, especially when they are backing their car into a tiny space.  It is incredible how good they are.  I'm, in a way, inspired to become a much better driver when because of the way the Japanese handle thier cars.
