Shibuya Scramble Crossing

I'm in Nagano again... And the cherry blossoms are still in bloom.

View from the Kitty park in Chikuma, Nagano earlier today.
For all it's skyscrapers, trains, money and sheeple, Tokyo has nothing that can compare to this.

Johannesburg

I didn’t realize how much I missed home till the cat and I got home. The skies. The food, the vibe. It’s home right? It was particularly nice to take the cat there. She has been to many places in Asia and all around the USA but never Africa. Never even the southern hemisphere. I have tried to explain it to the northerners up here but the truth is

Joburg is like nowhere else on earth.

Shots #71 Masterful.

Ofunato Volunteering - September 2011

We had a Friday public holiday last week in Japan which afforded me the chance to go back to Ofunato for a lightning volunteer trip with All Hands. I put the word out as I did before, but this time the call was answered by a fellow ALT in my city. We finished our work on Thursday, packed the loaner car I am currently driving (this is why) and headed north.

Shots #59 Summer Sky

This is an apology for the lack of updates of late. The windows machine decided to shit out it’s primary hard drive (been slowly re-installing shit) and blogging on a mac is… well. lets just call it a sub par experience. It is going to be a while before I knock together another long ass post but the little ones should be back from now.

 

Shots #57 Yet another Sky

Shots #54 Looking Up.

Over the hills and far away…

Long drive 2 of this year. It was mind-blowingly good. Intense and Hectic, But good. We started up Mt.Haruna and were greeted by the perfect driving weather, clear blue skies and warm sun (while the windows were closed anyway) and perfect visibility. We stopped off at the primary lookout point on the main touge and were stupefied at Just how far we could see. I have never been up there during the day when it was that clear… And I have been up there many many times.

Shibukawa Stroll

We took a stroll to the Shibukawa Besia because thanks to the fuel shortage I didn’t have enough juice to drive. Besides. it was a beautiful day. Not much to say really. The pics speak for themselves. Good times thanks to the bad times.

Nagano Part 1

On the last day of 2010 I went over the border to The frozen mountainous wild lands of Nagano. Apart from the briefest of visits to the Karuizawa town limits when I drove Usui, It is a prefecture that I had never been to, never wanted to go to and for that matter never really knew anything about apart from the fact that it was cold, covered in snow and had monkeys that bathed in hot springs. It took on a different meaning when I started dating my lady, since it is where she hails from. Over the months we have been together, Her little siblings had grown to know and show fondness for me so We decided it was time that I got around to meeting them. So I boarded a Shinkansen (bullet train) and took the (rather short) trip into the unknown.

Shots #21 HOLY SHIT!

I may have said this many many times… but Its only because its true.

Shibukawa has some impressive skies.

Kanasho Undoukai

Wow. Really. Just wow. It's a pity I left the big cam at home today. It's one of if not the most beautiful views I have seen at Kanashima Primary School (and beautiful views are no rarity here). The weather is perfect. And the atmosphere at the sports day is electric!

No… Really… It does.
