N'EX destination: Tokyo!
The 8:09 train to Tokyo would be the perfect train to be on...of course, you'd be singled out as a perv.
Finally...Cherry blossoms! Too bad I just missed the festival, but at least there were still blossoms around. The other two times I came were at the end of April, well after the Sakuras were gone. They didn't last long anyway.
Ah. Nostalgia. Sakuragicho Ferris Wheel. Still haven't gone on it.
Yokohama Bay.
MMMMMM Ramen.
MMMMMM. Waffle ice cream.
MMMMM. Pawaaa Up with Banira furaba Aisumiruku! (Power up with Vanilla flavor Ice Milk)
Pinpu: Pimp my watch!
Akarenga sogo. Some warehouse they turned into a shopping mall. Everything's a shopping mall. Let's shopping!
Tallest tower in Yoko.
Even the cathedrals seem a little modern.
Mister Donut in Anorexic Building. Somehow I made it all the way over to Kannai.
Well HOEIDO too!
Well, do I sit or do I squat?
They were in line for Chinese food. I ain't waiting.
MMM. Big Chocolate Chip Melon Buns and Yakult to start off the day.
This is where you go when you mess with Taisei.
Nathan's Hot Dogs in the expensive district?
MMMM. Makes me drool everytime I see it. The guy at the temple front desk recommended it, although he has never tried it. "People have said it's good". If you're around Tokyo Temple, this is the place to go.
The other temple at Hiroo.
The sword in the stone is in Hiroo too? Bet you didn't know that Christ's brother, Isukiri, is also buried in Japan!
Tokyo cops running after an anti-Chinese protester driving around in a van with a megaphone shouting out propaganda. The cops were shouting, "they're headed for the embassy!" and ran after them. I guess that's the best way to get around. Our cops here could never get around that quickly by foot. If you're wondering what embassy is down there, it's Qatar and Madagascar. Yeah, I don't know either.
She's saying "Are you looking at my Weiners?"
But you can feed everything else.
I don't know how anyone gets around these towns in a Hummer.
Shinjuku at night.
Who eats this? Obviously, only Sumos. Never seen it sold here.
Fillet O Shrimp. Good things come in small buns. Right, Bev?
Bony Parts. Now serving: Andrew!
Please do not smoke on the streets.
Happy Hideaki. Food smuggled off base. Of all the American bootleg I could have bought, a Whopper and fries is all he wanted.
MMMMMM. Okonomiyaki.
Too bad neither of us knew how to make it.
But it turned out alright.
MMM. rare mountain view.
Tried to get a shot of princess peach but since I don't look like a foreigner, I was embarrased to confront her. So this is as good as it gets.
No, not the shink. You'd know if a shinkansen passed you.
Poor beer girl. Should have taken a picture of her shins. They were all bruised and cut. Whenever someone buys beer from her, she kneels on the stairs and fills the cup. They are all happy and driven at the beginning of the game...by the 4th/5th inning, most are hunched over like a rice farmer, barely grinning. This one was the only one that remained happy. But I can't imagine she really was, especially with a beer keg on her back.
Man reading a paper at the game. Must be a season ticket holder.
A better look at the beer keg. Should be a man's job. But who wants beer from a fat man? Ruins the image of drinking beer entirely.
Look closely... Taisei Construction
Umbrella Cheersquad
Poor kid has to put up with dad's obsession. Evan in a couple years.
Run scored, or rain dance in the dome.
Retsu Go Ramirezu! = Let's go Ramirez! Imagine Manny's look if this cheer was for him!
A little late, dude.
His sole job is to be the revolving door revolver. Imagine career day at his kids school...Nelson: "Ha ha"
Shibuya at night
boob pillow next to the kids slippers. did i really need to explain this one?
HG. Fooooooo!
Hideaki says: After HG (Hard Gay) got married, he kinda lost his popularity. Well for one thing, we now know he's not really gay. That might have something to do with it.
MMMM. Five story 100 Yen shop at Machida. Drool, Wami & Jerin, Drool.
Tokyo Tower at 60 Kph
Tokyo Bay.
Fuji TV at Odaiba.
Goodbye, Tokyo.
Yummm fake food at Fujiya
Real food at Fujiya. Omurice. And some weird chewy pasta in a beef stew (supposedly their signature item)
The best way to end a trip to Japan.
