I went to Akihabara to buy a scale and walked into the aftermath of the June 8 stabbing — police cordons, CPR on the street. A frightening day to remember.

Cycling trip No. 4: Haneda again, across the bridge from the drama GOOD LUCK!! — filming locations hiding in plain sight, even if the planes stayed out of reach.

A 600 km Shinkansen trip to Hyogo, with a free Sunday in Osaka — saying a proper goodbye to Kuidaore Taro before the restaurant’s July closing.

This year’s Golden Week (yes, it’s already June) — I did something unusual and had my parents come visit Tokyo.

Work has been taking me to Shibuya more often lately. The view is great — I couldn’t help pulling out the camera.
