Taking the train in Japan

I was coming home on the train from Himeji and started looking at the random assortment of people in my train car. To the right of me were two young girls wearing matching Playboy Bunny sweat suites. To the left of me was a woman wearing an elaborate yukata complete with the traditional socks and sandals. There was a scattering of school-age students in their uniforms and businessmen and women in formal suites. There were young Japanese men and women dressed in trendy, up-the-minute fashion outfits. And then there were just a bunch of people dressed in casual, everyday clothes. Only in Japan can you see such a wide variety of dressing habits. I was dressed as I normally do, in jeans and sneakers.
