Photos from the Kanto plain area (mostly) of Japan: Tokyo, Yokohama, Kawasaki, and surrounding areas. Not likely to see many geisha or samurai. Just the Japan which has little to do with myths and movies---and yes, Tokyo IS part of the "real Japan."

Oh my God!
Ginza, a place I love but don't often visit because of the crowds. However, if you get there on weekends before 11, it ain't so bad.

The Art of Education
The Student
Tokyo Institute of Technology, Ookayama, Tokyo.
Come to think of it, spending forever studying might not be such a bad thing, if the pay were better.

Autumn at Tamagawadai Park
Despite earlier predictions, the autumn leaves in my part of Tokyo have been quite colorful.
After very close to 11 years here, I am beginning to get used to the late, warm autumns. I used to think it strange that autumn leaves were peaking in late November/early December as they have long ago peaked and fallen back home.
Now I am tempted to agree with people who tell me that the weather is getting cold---at 60 degrees!!!!!
I have been here too darned long.
