| Stephen Wiltshire draws Tokyo from memory |
 |
(www.stephenwiltshire.co.uk)
One of Stephen's extraordinary abilities is
to memorize landscapes up to the highest
detail. During this flight he had a thorough
look at the view of the Japanese capital from
the helicopter including thousands of
buildings, towers, high-ways, cars, buses,
even down to intricate details of trees and
windows. Following the 30 minutes ride
Stephen seemed to be very excited and ready
for the challenge.

Was rather happy when Lucasfilm sent mail
saying that it gave them a giggle ;-)
Video was shot right after the party that
YouTube invited us to - the "YouTube Mix" in
Omotesando where we got to meet the
co-founder of YouTube Steve Chen. T'was a
great party.
This time round, the codpiece came off half
way through so we didn't shoot that much this
time. Going to glue that codpiece down and
attempt to do some more dancing in another
location around Tokyo.

| F.Y.I. Tokyo: Cost of Living |
 |
A long requested, though sadly not terribly
exciting topic: Cost of Living in Tokyo. I
go through my monthly bills and hopefully
give an idea of what one can expect to pay.
Some interesting links...

| Free Hugs - Shibuya Tokyo - another True Story |
 |
Inspired by Sick Puppies "All the Same" video
featuring Juan Mann, people here in Japan
have started the Free Hugs Campaign.
Some says it won't happen in Japan. But it
did!
This is a true documentary video of Free Hugs
at Shibuya, Tokyo.
Music "Tohmawari" supplied by courtesy of
Katsufumi Takeuchi.
For those who care about why FREE HUGS on the
sign board is written in English, not
Japanese, we wanted to communicate with the
original English-language words, and they ARE
the message. Plus, Free Hugs in Japanese is
actually written on the other side of the
board.
Thanx.
Hug & Love !!
