Yokohama

Japanese Chinatown

Finally figured out that was Hello Kitty in a panda suit, and not a panda choking on his 3 toungues. Took a while though.

I think they sold pandas, or tires. Maybe both.


Please rob us. We are not from around here.

Someone likes dragons


And Ligers, which are bred for their skills in magic.

Of course we had to stop here for a beer

Yokohama Terminal

People love to pose for the camera. Or was he telling me not to take pictures of them? I have no idea.

Can someone please send me some American Gladiator pugils so I can challenge unsuspecting passerbys?
View of Yokohama out one side of the Landmark tower's 69th floor "Sky Garden." The elevator climbs at 750 meters per minute (and was at one time not that long ago the worlds fastest)

View out the other side

Another side

Across the waterfront. Interesting to note that much of this land has been reclaimed from the sea. And it seems more is being added every year.

Road level(s)
Shadow from the Landmark Tower

Everyone was in a posing mood today

Even Will.

How do you make Grimmace jealous?
