Ueno Zoo
Today was a pretty nice lazy saturday. I went to the zoo around noon and saw the giant pandas and tigers and bears (oh my). They also had a komodo dragon which was pretty awesome. I guess these posts aren’t very interesting, when all I do is normal stuff.
It was mad hot though. After the first hour or so, I was about to pass out. Saved, fortunately, by lunch in an ACed building. Also, saw some classic paddle boats. Some had swans. Tomorrow, yoyogi park and other cool stuff.
Did laundry in the evening, a pretty easy, albeit much too expensive process.
Peace out.
Plans are made to be broken-sounds like you are having a grand time-maid outfits huh? Have you seen any punk styles or whatever?
Been to any pachinko parlors-Japanese pinball? You need to eat some squid on a stick or squid chips or whatever just to say you have.
Just joking! So by the end of the month you are going to have about 100 pounds of treasures to lug around, no? The joys of consumerism.
Thanks for sharing all this stuff, it is time well spent! Love, D.

Yeah, My guess is I’ll intermittently send stuff back home, no doubt whenever I go to another part of the country.
I’ll probably see some punk stuff today, if Yoyogi park lives up to its name.
Every arcade also has pachinko, so I’ve seen plenty of them. I’ve not yet played yet, but probably will before I leave. They truly are all over the place.
