The fruits of a Thursday
So I work really really hard, which is why I was surfing wikipedia today and found these fun facts:
First, Kasai borders the city of Himeji which is pretty sweet and when people here don't know Kasai I tell them I live near Himeji, a la Seattle and Kenmore.
Fun Facts:
Himeji is the 25th largest city in Japan
Portland is the 31st largest city in the US
Himeji's population: 535,000
Portland's population: 537,000
Awwww, twins! Heartful get!
But then I dug into the metro area. First, I found Portland:
Greater Portland (Portland-Vancouver-Beaverton): 2.1 million
Way to go Portland! You show Cincinnati!
But then I discovered that Himeji, as well as Kasai, are merely a part of:
京阪神 (Kyoto-Osaka-Kobe): 18.6 million
owned. Kasai is a part of this large sprawling blue mass
It's the light blue blob right above where the dark blue blobs stop on the left side
Luckily this sprawling mass is my favorite part of Japan.
