Really randomly found this. After an inspiring facebook ad, I suddenly had the urge to type in "watermelon house" in the google search bar. To redeem myself there will be a more lengthy post this week. :)
Haha, the same Facebook ad (it said St. Paul Bucket List on top of the photo) led me to do the same Google search, which also led me here! Too funny. :)
After a little more digging, I discovered that it's a bus shelter in Japan. There's also a super cute strawberry shaped shelter in Japan, too! I'm kind of sad that it's not anywhere near me...
yeah I caught glimpse of this under Dayton Ohio's bucketlist on Facebook and tried googling "watermelon house" and your blog popped up. False advertisement! no fair, no fair.
i saw the same facebook ad and it said west houston bucket list. i also did the same serch for watermelon house. lol. now that you said it's in japan, if you look at the sign right behind you can see what might be japaneese words.
It said Baltimore Bucket List on my FB ad. They sometimes have pictures of Niagara Falls on the Baltimore Bucket list ad, so I like to click on these and find out where these non-Baltimorean Baltimore Bucket listees actually ARE!
LOL ... doing the same search (inspired by what was probably the same Facebook ad) lead me to your page and this photo. LOL!!
ReplyDeletegreat minds think alike.
ReplyDeleteWhere is this watermelon house located? Anyone know?

ReplyDeleteHey, I also saw the facebook ad and did the same search - "watermelon house" haha. But my facebook ad was for the San Diego bucket list. Crazy!
ReplyDeleteI'm a little bummed that it's not actually in San Diego.
ReplyDeleteWell it's not in Raleigh NC either where this bldg (which I just had to find online) was in the Facebook ad for said locale. Someone please find it!!!

ReplyDeleteThanks for solving the Watermelon House mystery - I was hoping it was in my town too based on the facebook advert!
ReplyDeletehaha if you look closely you can see japanese writing on the bench. lol
