q813: Last full day in Tokyo
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008/01/last-full-day-in-tokyo.html
Friday, January 18, 2008. Last full day in Tokyo. Saturday morning and it's a gorgeous day here. Off to a flea market to do some last minute crap acquisition and then to the Imperial Palace. For site seeing. There's some kind of all you can eat strawberry pastry thing after that at our hotel (don't know if that's a particularly good idea but hey). And tonight, finally, we shoot Deconstructing Dinner: Okonomiyaki. January 18, 2008 at 11:34 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Last full day in Tokyo.

q813: Camera gear
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008/01/camera-gear.html
Monday, January 7, 2008. The one area in which I've actually given the trip some thought is the camera stuff I'll be taking. The last time I went I lugged my giant XL2. Or in well lit interiors. Outdoors at night gives less useful results. The one additional trick that I haven't tried before is bringing an external hard drive. I got this portable USB powered drive for Christmas, a 160GB WD Passport (cherry! The only regret I have about the camera logistics is that CNSMHB won't be back from Africa.

q813: Basecamp Akasaka
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008/01/basecamp-akasaka.html
Friday, January 18, 2008. From Akasaka Grand Prince. Originally uploaded by -nanio-. I've left Hitotsubashi-gakuen behind and have relocated operations HQ to the more metropolitan Akasaka at the Grand Prince. This hotel has upteen bars, cafes, massage places and supposedly an oxygen bar that will have to be sought out for breathing purposes. But instead of staying here I think we're going to roll out to either Roppongi. Should be a fun night. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Last full day in Tokyo.

q813: Rock Club Dokken
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008/01/rock-club-dokken.html
Friday, January 18, 2008. Originally uploaded by -nanio-. After that we took an series of cabs in search of this elusive place in Shibuya we found in 2005. It's still an open question whether it was located or not because once we finally got there they wanted us to order three servings of food to stay. At 2am, and following several dinners and second dinners, this seemed too much to ask. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Sweet sweet sweet strawberries. Last full day in Tokyo. Kabuki-za, in Ginza.

q813: Snow in Tokyo
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008/01/snow-in-tokyo.html
Wednesday, January 16, 2008. When we left Domo-domo last night. It was snowing in Tokorozawa. We're talking minor, minor flakes, most melting before they hit the ground. Not much by some standards. But Keiko said it was the first time she had seen snow in Tokyo. Hara-san says it is snowing for real in Tokyo now. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Sweet sweet sweet strawberries.

q813: Umibudo
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008/01/umibudo.html
Wednesday, January 16, 2008. Originally uploaded by -nanio-. Odd day today. Tried to find the punks of Yoyogi but failed for the most part. Apparently 4pm on a Wednesday is not the optimal punking hour, so I wandered around a massive temple (Meiji Jingu) in Yoyogi Koen instead. I finally found my punks down in Harajuku. On the endlessly amusingly named Takeshita-dori. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Sweet sweet sweet strawberries. Last full day in Tokyo. Kabuki-za, in Ginza. View my complete profile.

q813: January 2008
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 20, 2008. Somehow after what feels like an eternity on various airplanes and dirigibles I've made it safely home to Massachusetts. All in all, while I had a fantastic time in Tokyo, I'm happy to be home with punky monkey. Who seems happy to see me (won't stop licking my hand! But, too skinny! Cultural highlights of the week were Kabuki. More enterntainment-wise, the last night's pre-flight box karaoke extravaganza. And the Tokyo Pinsalocks. At the Basement Bar. Thanks again for reading!

q813: Correction
http://q813.blogspot.com/2008/01/correction.html
Saturday, January 19, 2008. Originally uploaded by -nanio-. I've been told it's not okonomiyaki. Suffice to say it's going to be the best deconstructing. Off to the airport in seven hours. It's been brilliant. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Sweet sweet sweet strawberries. Last full day in Tokyo. Kabuki-za, in Ginza. Japanese electricity, lighting and frame rates.
