My Several Worlds

One of my favorite photos from Japan is of these colorful little temple dolls. We found them at the last station in a temple 6.3km from the top of Mt. Fuji.  Although the weather refused to cooperate with us that day, we still had a great time exploring the area despite the fact that the [...]

I snapped this photo as we were driving in downtown Osaka. I think it brings new meaning to “Bright Lights, Big City.”

Any country is A-OK in my books when their construction workers look like this. Japanese construction workers must be the best-dressed in the world!

Osaka is a colorful city with a little something for everyone. It also boasts one of the most charming places I’ve ever been to in all my travels. This was my choice for sightseeing in Osaka and we thoroughly enjoyed spending our afternoon strolling through this gorgeous park. I highly recommend it [...]

Plain and simple. I like parks. If there’s a park around, I will surely find my way to it at some point or another. I think you can really get a feel for a city when you visit its parks.
I come from a park town. Ottawa is well-known for its parks. [...]

There’s so much going I totally missed the peak-a-boo nipples until I looked at the picture when we got home. I was too busy gazing with [...]

Spend a day walking around Harajuku and you’ll get more than you ever need for a gaggle of sights. Harajuku is well-known for its boutiques and bistros; in-famous for its Harajuku Kids and Cos-play-zoku aka The Costume Play Gang, a day spent here is a day in voyeur’s paradise.

Despite the gorgeous weather, there weren’t [...]

Everyone wants to be a musician in Tokyo. That means the area around Tokyo’s School of Music is always swarming with wanna-be-musicians looking for a lucky break. This GUY was the absolute worst singer I’ve ever heard. His sense of fashion is as bad as his singing.
He sure knows how to work [...]

Crowds gathering just before the madness begins.
Shibuya! I like the sound of it. Whenever I think of Shibuya, I think of “Shazam!” Bolts of electric light in Shibuya’s on-going onslaught of ad campaigns have the magical ability to transport you into the future, just like the bolts of lightening in Captain Marvel comic [...]
