Shopping in Kyoto?

Well heres how its going down. My mother is going to Japan and will be in Kyoto. I was wondering where in Kyoto can you buy airsoft stuff.

Also what would be the best thing to buy from Japan that won't be any trouble to bring back?

*Can a mod edit the tittle to fix it please*

Really, really inconspicuous stuff. Mostly internal upgrade parts, I'd say. Stuff that I wouldn't trust my own mother to be able to pick out....

To avoid any trouble at all? Including your mother having to go through hell when returning? Buying from a Canadian Retailer would be the safest thing to do (and since your own mother is involved, the smartest thing to do).

I know it's probably not what you want to hear, but why would you put your own mother at risk???

Edit; yes, a few parts maybe, like springs and gears, but those you can get in Canada anyway. Customs has been known to go nuts over stranger things. Being accused of smuggling is not a trivial charge; personal luggage is well scanned.

i'd suggest picking up any Japanese entertainment, such as music, anime or anything else you can't get here. You most likely won't get boned in the rear on cost if it's from Japan, and if you like that stuff.

Try to get a multilingual MP3 player, or Portable Media Player, the ones over there are quite advanced and nice.

Except for the missing nudity it sounds like the perfect reason to get one. Now fitting her into your mom's luggage might be a real problem.

Shoop Lyrics
Artist: Salt N Pepa
Album: Very Necessary


Hey, yeah - I wanna shoop, baby

[Oooo, how you doin', baby?
No, not you
You, the bow-legged one, (ha-ha) yeah
What's your name?
Damn, that sounds sexy]

Here I go, here I go, here I go again (again?)
Girls, what's my weakness? (Men!)
Ok then, chillin', chillin', mindin' my business (word)
Yo, Salt, I looked around, and I couldn't believe this
I swear, I stared, my niece my witness
The brother had it goin' on with somethin' kinda...uh
Wicked, wicked (oooo) - had to kick it
I'm not shy so I asked for the digits
A ho? No, that don't make me
See what I want slip slide to it swifty
Felt it in my hips so I dipped back to my bag of tricks
Then I flipped for a tip, make me wanna do tricks for him
Lick him like a lollipop should be licked
Came to my senses and I chilled for a bit
Don't know how you do the voodoo that you do
So well it's a spell, hell, makes me wanna shoop shoop shoop

Shoop shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop

Ummm, you're packed and you're stacked 'specially in the back
Brother, wanna thank your mother for a butt like that (thanks, Mom)
Can I get some fries with that shake-shake boobie?
If looks could kill you would be an uzi
You're a shotgun - bang! What's up with that thang?
I wanna know how does it hang?
Straight up, wait up, hold up, Mr. Lover
Like Prince said you're a sexy mutha-
Well-a, I like 'em real wild, b-boy style by the mile
Smooth black skin with a smile
Bright as the sun, I wanna have some fun
Come (come) and (hmmm) give me some of that yum-yum
Chocolate chip, honey dip, can I get a scoop? (please)
Baby, take a ride in my coupe, you make me wanna...

Shoop shoop ba-doop (Baby, hey)
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop
Shoop shoop ba-doop (Don't you know I wanna shoop, baby)
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop

Well let me bring you back to the subject, Pep's on the set
Make you get hot, make you work up a sweat
When you skip-to-my-lou, my darling
Not falling in love but I'm falling for your [super sperm]
When I get ya betcha bottom dollar you were best under pressure
[Yo, Sandy, I wanna like, taste you]
Getcha getcha lips wet cuz it's time to have Pep

On your mark, get set, go, let me go, let me shoop
To the next man in the three-piece suit
I spend all my dough, ray me, cutie
Shoop shoop a-doobie like Scoobie Doobie Doo
I love you in your big jeans, you give me nice dreams
You make me wanna scream, "Oooo, oooo, oooo!"
I like what ya do when you do what ya do
You make me wanna shoop

Shoop shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop
Shoop shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop

[Oh, my goodness, girl, look at him
He's the cutest brother in here
And he's comin' this way! Oooo!]

S and the P wanna kick with me, cool (uh-huh)
But I'm wicked, G, (yeah) hit skins but never quickly (that's right)
I hit the skins for the hell of it, just for the yell I get
Mmm mmm mmm, for the smell of it (smell it)
They want my bod, here's the hot rod (hot rod)
Twelve inches to a yard (damn) and have ya soundin' like a retard (yeah)
Big 'Twan Love-Her, six-two, wanna hit you
So what you wanna do?
What you wanna do?
Mmmm, I wanna shoop

Shoop shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop
Shoop shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop
Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop

Oh, you make me wanna shoop
Hey yeah, I wanna shoop, baby

Yeah, they're generally meant to entertain, and keep the flow of the evening/meeting moving. Sometimes they tell stories, serve saki and food, and do short traditional dances and such. Anything sexual should it occur is very rare, and done for very special clients. They're still pretty hot though.

I've seen some documentaries about modern geisha...lets just say its skills not good looks that makes a geisha a geisha, good looks help and so most of them are at least fairly good looking but some of them, eek.

If you're looking for airsoft stuff, then there's quite a few shops in/around Kyoto, it all depends on what style of play. There are shops that specialize ONLY in guns that fire over 400fps and shops that specialize ONLY in guns that shoot under 400fps.

Other than that, check out a Tokyu Department store and look in/around the toy section to find TONS of TM springers of all shapes and sizes (hahaha, in Japan, springers are considered toys, what are they considered here... PROHIBITED WEAPONS... WTF?)
