Almost correct, the Girl second from the left with the long Green hair (Two Tails style) is NOT a waitress but a Hatsune Miku character. But that is a fun picture for sure. thanks.

I can hear the little-girl voices calling out right now... and those of the maids. The otaku must have loved this... out there with their smartphones and cameras.
I like Akihabara, and the maids are bright and colourful... but it's amazing how many people just blank them when they're handing out paper hankies or flyers.
Nice happy photo ^_^

Sprinkle? Looks like they are throwing the whole bucket at once.

fresh water is a limited resource in south Africa. do not throw it away. you can save a lot of children with a bucket of fresh water.

It's far from being so in Japan.
