New Starbucks in Kamakura スターバックス鎌倉 (with tatami and swimming pool!!!)

http://www.starbucksmug.com/2011/08/japan-2008-starbucks-mug/ ~ Had a little trip to Kamakura this past few days and on our way back from an Inari fox shrine we found this awesome new design Starbucks and I had to make a video of it! I love the spacious design and natural materials.

What really impressed me though was the outdoor seating at the back of the Starbucks that featured traditional tatami pillows for customers to sit on, set around a swimming pool! Very cool and only a 5 minute walk from Kamakura Station (non Kamakura temple side, near Kinokuniya).

I'm currently trying to get my friends to join in me checking this place out. Even if they can't make it I planning on having visited by the end of the week.

It looks almost like you entered a home. I think I would feel a little naughty wearing shoes inside.
