Japan Expo '06 In Los Angeles

[ArmandV]

I attended the Japan Expo at the Los Angeles Convention Center yesterday. Had a great time. Picked up a 2007 Japan calendar, posters (courtesy of JNTO), travel brochures, maps, some chopstick sets and this item:

And this is the dealer where I bought it (we need a section on Japanese toys and collectibles here at JREF):

One interesting booklet I received was on onsens at hotels and ryokans in the Shizuoka area. It tells what onsen facilities they have, whether they're indoors or outdoors and if they have private one or mixed. If memory serves, I think I got it at the JNTO booth.
