Zarragossa Street in Pensacola Florida
Today is the 4th of July, and for my non-American friends, that means it’s Independence Day! Although we couldn’t have the customary fireworks, my family did have some homemade burgers. On a day like this I’m left remembering my home. I love Japan, but there are definitely times that I would love to be back in the states. But since I can’t do that, I can at least go back through old photos and remember...
Salaryman’s Winter
Although Spring is just around the corner here (actually it’s officially tomorrow!) but today it is rainy and feels much like Winter. I suppose that’s fitting for the end of this Winter, as it’s been quite cold and we even got a lot of snow. I took this photo during the first snow in Tokyo this year. Although it didn’t really stick or accumulate at all as it did later on, it still makes for...
Umbrella Crossing

Although, unfortunately this time I don’t have my camera as it is in the shop for repairs...
Path Through The Snowy Tokyo Woods
It probably goes without saying, but there aren’t many wooded areas in Tokyo. Sure there are trees here and there, but most of Tokyo is just concrete and steel. However, there are a few select places where you can find natural scenery, and when it snows in these areas, one would be hard pressed to find much difference between that scene and a wintry New England view. When I stumbled across this spot, I could...
