Sometimes I hate my job, especially when it's with a cute 22 year old from a Pachinko parlor modeling in a Multicam bikini holding my SPAS 12.

if you hate your job, can we please trade jobs, so I can learn to hate it as well lease:lease:lease:

as always thank you

One just two nights ago was the 'Hotaru' festival where the city releases thousands and thousands of LED-powered orbs into the river which are carried down a few kilometers and make for a gorgeous lights display

well shit, i missed that by a day

As for that mascott, she is 'Azu-chan', the city mascot of Azumabashi in Sumida-city across the river from Asakusa.

good to know; at least now i know what to ask for

Lastly, the 'red light' street in Ueno -is- for strip-clubs and sex-clubs. Great if you like Chinese sex-slaves that are too indebted to the mafia to go back home.

as i thought, more or less.

thank you for the infos!

better than a sea of sauce under your tonkatsu.

 

[aquamarine]

I disagree!
You can never have too much sauce for your tonkatsu!

And this is what happens when you climb Mt. Fuji with a fever, a sore back and not enough warm clothing... you have a miserable time but get some amazing views. - Going again this August!

I should mention, this was the moon, not the sun.

My question to my partner was "What lake is that? Its huge!" he answered "Um... that's the pacific ocean...."

There's that big lake again...

Yea... actual steps going up the mountain... although they don't last for very long.

Someone just asked me on another forum how long it took to climb... here's my answer.

We arrived at about 7:30pm via bus at the bottom of the mountain and had to hang out there for an hour to acclimate to the already thinning air. We started up about 8:20 or so and got to the top around 6:30-7am. Not in time for the sunrise, but in time to FINALLY get warmed up a little bit via the sun. It's FFFFing COLD up there, let me tell you. Some said the toughest part was going down... FFFF THAT, the toughest part -IS- going up. Going down you get a nice view of everything and it looks beautiful... going up is in the dark, you need to spelunk up rocks and other shit.. it's not just a combed path in the least. There's some portions that people have made into 'steps' (like stairs) but those are few and far between.

--

As for how I felt... well, I couldn't walk up or down stairs for about 3 days after that. Next time, I'm going to spend the first entire hour at the bottom of Fuji by streching EVERYTHING I can.

They'll probably ban you from the mountain if you try!
