Outside, I had my first CB1300 sighting. I had talked to the exporter about finding me one of these. No, I don't know how I would register it in the U.S. I don't care. I want one.

Haha, I see those all the time. In fact, I have an '04 R1100S Boxer Cup replica with only 64.3 miles on my lift right now, and a '52 R51/3 on the floor next to it.

...my friend said we should cross and check out that area. Now I only took a couple of pictures once across the street. Because even though my Japanese is only mediocre, I didn't have any trouble understanding what most of the businesses were about. If the two leggy women in the above picture don't give you an idea...
...then perhaps this will help. This sign was just too funny not to snap a picture.

You remember that scene at the beginning of Lost in Translation? Pretty much the same as the intro on Shinya Shokudo. Well, there's the bridge both scenes go under. At night, of course. I've yet to make the same drive at night myself. Maybe next trip?
For whatever reason, the Yunika Building was showing Pet Shop Boys videos. All day, all night. It's not that I don't like their music, but all day and all night?
Just taking a general shot here, but caught a mint 190E 2.3-16v going by. I used to work at the local dealer when those were new. Fun times, fun cars! Never see them that nice in the U.S. anymore though.
Just love how the light can play on buildings in big cities.

After taking this picture, I shot a little video of walking back under the bridge. I would link to it, but I've tried linking to YouTube before and it triggers the s-p-a-m filter. Sorry!
Doing a little shopping while in Shinjuku. Hey, these folks have the right idea...

Back outside in time for the last light of the day. Is it just me, or is the previous generation of Cube cuter than the current one? Although I like the current one. It's got that certain funkiness that the xB is missing.
Here's a truck advertising a robot cafe. Really? I've seen the maid cafes, I went to a rabbit cafe (more on that later), and I've even heard of a goat cafe. But a robot cafe? Oh right, this is Japan...
On our way over to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building and... bam! Night happened. lol
