Kobe

I just learned something interesting. I guess the reason Kobe is so busy this time of year is not just the seasonal Luminarie, but a huge draw for dates in general. Kobe is considered the dating city. With Osaka and Kyoto so nearby, I was really surprised to hear this, but apparently people from all over Kansai deem my darling little Kobe as one of the most romantic date spots around.
This little fact made me think of a Magnetic Fields song I like. Can’t repeat the lyrics here, but it’s stuck in my head now. I need to stop singing about dancing bears ;)
