Pilgrimage to Land of the Rising Sun

[Tanzy]

Minna-san Kombanwa!

Japan +5 hours.

I'm now a few thousand miles closed to Singapore in Tokyo, Japan. Finally, made it here after such a long time and such a long flight. Cute chick beside me during the flight was more interested in sleeping than talking. Can't speak much english anyway.

Quite overwhelmed by the sights and lights but underwhelmed by the ordered chaos that happens around me. Just had the best Japanese meal of my life, so far and probably the best tasting meal I've ever had, so far. I couldn't identify half of what I was eating unfortunately.

Nice handphones but I can't figure out how to work them. Too lazy to read instruction manual. Maybe later.

Enjoy the pics.

Long exposure of a traffic junction. Always wanted to do something like that.

Remember in Kopitiam some one posted a controversial Japanese sign? We were wondering if it was Photoshoped but now I have conclusive proof that it was editted.

This is the real sign found on JR Trains.

It is to remind passengers to give seats to handicapped, elderly, pregnant and passengers travelling with babies.

I see...

[KingFish]

Much nicer skyline than old London eh?

Keep snapping while you're there, there are mighty interesting stuff in Nippon.

And for relaxing time, make it Santori time

Razo,

Doesn't matter. I know it has been circulating around the net. That person also changed the text.

Rumor,

I roughly can imagine what it feels like to be Bill Murray in Japan. I ate dinner alone and it took 2 hours. I was bored stiff.

Suntory gives me a major hangover. Really. I will stay away from it. For relaxing time, watch Japanese TV which has 75% commercial TV ads. Good laugh. Funny even though you don't understand.

I do have Suntory in the mini bar.

Is that your minibar? damn .... where's the midget aibo-styled butler that springs out of the bedroom closet to attend to all your needs

[FuEl]

私達に日本の女の子の写真を示しなさい!

[Tanzy]

I have about 300 megs of sakura pictures. It's very dificult to take photos of the girls discreetly with my big camera and Harajuku is crowded as hell. I had an eye feast today!

Oh, Aragorn, King Elessar of Gondor, Viggo Mortenssen is next door to me in the hotel. I met him this morning. I don't think he is very friendly. Maybe he thought I was press.

[Tanzy]

I was at Shinjuku Park where they have over 1000 cherry and peach trees. Mostly, old people because younger one have to work. Lots of people there just sitting on the grass getting blasted by the strong wind and sakura petals. Weather isn't too good today.

[ai[k²]wan]

nice flowers...u went there to have a look at the flowers?

[Tanzy]

Of course! Flower flowers and girl flowers.

Hanami or sakura blossom viewing is a big thing in Japanese culture. It's really beautiful. You have to see it in person. I'll post more pictures on to my website once I have access to Photoshop.

[Achilles Tang]

Man, I wish I was back in Japan again!

I miss the sakura flowers... but not the biting weather...

[Tanzy]

Ohaiyo!

Today's weather is a balmy 22 to 18 deg C. Clear skys with drizzle in the afternoon and evening.

AT,

Join me in June for hitomi concert then.

Today I'll be going to Ueno, Akihabara, Shinbashi and Odaiba. I'll strive to take pictures of hot chicks. Naturally, more sakura shots.

[Tanzy]

Bought loads of stuff today at Ameyoko and Odaiba. More sakura at Ueno park.

[Tanzy]

More Hello!Project.

[Tanzy]

Rainbow bridge and Tokyo tower from Aqua City, Odaiba.

[Tanzy]

The Telecom centre at Odaiba.

[Tanzy]

Sakura at Ueno Park.

Was at Shibuya last night. The Hachiko junction is pure madness! 109 (Ichi Maru Kyu) was packed with babes! Generally, Shibuya has more normal people. If you like young girls and freaks (EGL, visual kei, etc) then go to Harajuku.

Currently in the central alps of Honshu. Staying in the city of Matsumoto. The picture is of Matsumoto Castle.
