More pictures from the phone. Above; a not-so-busy trainstation on a not-so-busy day. I can’t remember where I was headed or what I was doing.
Left; the view out the window from one of the museums in Ueno. Right; a sunset over Nakano.
The obligatory bathroom shot. This one from university.

Hello and goodbye October. Above; tried out a slightly different look before heading out into Shinjuku at night.
Dinner and breakfast. For champions!
I am still amazed at all the wires in the streets here.
Nothing cheers your day up like a bit of Engrish, correct?
I went for monster-sushi with a friend. First time I ever tried meatball-sushi (gunkan style!). And tempura-sushi. Geez. Below; The flowers are blooming all year around here. I mostly find it wonderful.

This is what Tokyo looks like during December. Not a snowflake in sight; but enough sparkling lights to power a small country.

Needless to say, Tokyo does not look like this even on the coldest winter day, but re-editing pictures from other places, times and spaces is the closest I will get to a white Christmas. The way the snow muffles all sounds and make everything slow down was always something I appreciated, despite the cold.
