Miscellaneous stuff from last week

Skuan leaving for home on a Saturday morning. An early Saturday morning. So early its surreal.








A Sunday evening by the Tamagawa River. Peace cafe. Reggae music humming in the background. Joggers, dragon flies, cyclist, dog walkers, a table full of guys and girls in yukata. In the distant, baseball team in training and kicking up a dust storm. Kids playing with fireworks, shooting at the passing trains.

A satisfying dinner: Pasta, pizza, white wine and a sparkling. An orange cake and a sweet ice cream with espresso dessert accompany by two coffee. Stopped by Futako Tamagawa Takashimaya to rest before embarking on an hour of sticky sweaty cycling home.

The story of the hole in my jeans. This hole is the result of playing with my dog a couple of year ago. He bit and torn it. It grew with time ever since. Now, it’s all that he left for me to remember him by. Ann Ann. A cheerful carefree dog. A good friend of mine too. Along with Jenny, TOTO and Lucky, may them rest in peace.

Typhoon 11 hits Tokyo tonight. Everyone goes home early. I’m supposed to be at Isu enjoying my summer vacation but end up postponing to next week. Typhoon’s season has come and indicating that summer is soon over. Get ready for a short day and long night of hot pot (narbey) eating and drinking.
