*en el aeropuerto*
M: Quick Scarlett, the taxi has been waiting for us for 30 minutes.
S: Ok, I'm coming.
M: why did you take so long? You know that here in Tokyo it is incosiderate to be late.
S: yeah, I know, but it was hard for me to carry my bags.
M: ok no problem.
* in the taxi *
M: Good evening, can you take us near the Shibuya Crossing, please? Near there is our hotel.
S: Wow, Milene, how did you find where the hotel is so fast?
M: when I was a child I came to Tokyo for vacations and well, I remember some things.
S: Wow, perfect. Altough you don't remember much about Tokyo, your knowledge can help us.
M: Yes Maybe, but what I remember most are the traditions.
S: Oh, ok, well, let's go to the Tokyo subway.,
M: Ok go
*en la calle*
S: Look Milene, there are some people who wear masks. Is it all right if I don't wear mask?
M: Yeah, its fine. You do not need to wear a mask, Some people use a mask for contamination
and others to protect from diseases, so it is not an obligation.
S: Thats OK
M: Scarlett, could you see any smoking areas?
S: No, I haven't seen a smoking area yet.
M: Why not? while we were in the taxi I saw 2 smoking areas.
S: Really? I didn't see them because I was distracted watching the advertisements, they are very
colorful and funny. But I have read about the smoking areas.
M: Read? Where?
S: I read it in this book. It's called "Japan and their secrets." I bought it at the airport.
M: That is wonderful Scarlett.
S: Yeah, listen to me, it says here that Normally, people smoke in smoking areas, because it is
very rude to smoke in public.
M: Wow, I didn't remember that.

* en el tren *
S: Is it OK to hear music on my cellphone?
M: Sure, no problem.
S: * In this scene you listen to music but without headphones, at full volume *
M: Scarlett, Please turn off your music or put on headphones.
S: What is it?
M: Listening music at full volume was disrespectful for the passengers.
S: Oh, I had no idea.
M: Don't worry.
S: Milene, where are we?
M: Hmm, I'm not sure.
S: I think we passed our station.
M: Yes, I think the same. Let's get down!
* Bajamos del tren*
M: Scarlett, I think we are lost!
S: No no no, it can't be. We do not concede this city.
M: Don't be scared Scarlett. You make me nervous.
S: We can't ask anyone, because we don't speak Japanese. We have problems with the language
barrier.
M: Yes, I know. But talking is not the only way to communicate, we can use body language. The
language barrier should not be a problem.
S: Ok, try to communicate using body language and I gona see if we ran into someone who
speaks Spanish. See you in 5 minutes right here.
M: Ok.
* Milene se comunica usando el lenguaje corporal*
M: Scarlett! I already know how to get to Takeshita Street.
S: Did you manage to communicate with a Japanese citizen?
M: Yeah, use the body language. Takeshita Street is two blocks away.
S: Ok let's go.
* En la calle Takeshita *
S: Look Milene, in the restaurant with Sailor Moon theme, the employees have their hair of
different colors.
M: Yeah, they look very pretty.
S: I have an idea. What if we dye our hair?
M: Yeah, I love that crazy idea.
M: You have to look for an ad for a hairdresser.
S: Look, in that ad it says they dye their hair for free.
M: What are we waiting for? Go.
