Something a little different for today's post. I went to Fukuoka a couple weeks ago for a nice day trip. I didn't get any gumball machine pictures though I saw many in the city. Many places don't allow cameras inside so it's a bit difficult to get good shots of some of the newer machines. Fortunately the older machines are left outside and easy to shoot. Anyways, when I was in Fukuoka I saw this.




Apparently this is a bicycle parking system. From what I gather, people purchase cards from the machine and input which parking station their bike is located. Not too sure what exactly the price is for the parking. I just can't imagine paying for bicycle parking. But space is a premium here so anything goes.
