Pictures (1-3) Descriptions


    Picture descriptions starting from the top down (roughly chronological from bottom up):
-(First two) Two temples in Asakusa. 1000 and 400 years old respectively, If my memory serves me correctly
-Jewry and I around the temples wafting incense smoke on our hair.... IDK why it's just what the rest of em were doing. The incense had a swastika on them, I'd also noticed one earlier on an old man's bicycle. I figured that he had just fought in WWII but after asking Yoshi and Ohatasan over some drinks they told me it was a Hinduim Symbol
-Me in the train station on the way to Akiabara, where the electronics district is
-Fried chicken skin that we ordered on accident here in Yamato while trying a new Kamiatori
-A large and small coffee ordered here in town for breakfast: the Large was as big as an American small
-Squid offered at the market in the shopping plaza Sogo, in Yokohama
-Jimmysan and I in our go to watering hole called the Virgin Sunset, a Hawaiian style bar run by a Japanese man that rides a Harley and owns a surfboard shop across the street
-The crew with Jimmysan's friend from work, Ohatasan, at a restaurant we visited in Asakusa after visiting the temples that were 400, 700 and 1000 years old!
-My favorite beer I've ever had, SERIOUSLY at the same restaurant
-Our Japanese buddies Kenny, Ohatasan, Yoshi in the new Korean Venue
          We would eat and drink at both places for an hour or two at each. Ordering several dishes that came out in small portions at a time and everyone shared. So if I ordered everyone's bill went up because it was all split evenly at the end. Interesting
-The container my Sake was served in ( a couple of shots worth, maybe 6 oz) at a high temperature, the warmer it was the smoother it tastes, like water at first
-My darling and I chillaxin'
