a tokyo photolog (my flickr archive, and occasional rant and rave: I have a free flickr acount, and want to keep the pics I have uploaded.)
It seemed that yesterday's snow had melted and frozen during the night.
Around 8.30, 22 January 2006. Tokyo.

Just a quick snap. The snow kept dropping from the roof and I couldn't stay very long because it's honestly dangerous.

Well, this is not from freezer, but from the sky. Tokyo's first (proper) snow this winter. Around 8.00, 21 January 2006.
Since we had a very little bit of snowfall back in December, it's been unusually cold but this is the first snow in Tokyo, though northeastern part of Japan have had enough .
Here's a Reuters article.

An advert of a temp-staff agency. Found in a station on Tokyo Underground (subway).

5 plus 5 is10, 1 devided by 1 is 1 (four times), thus, 10-1=9
334555:
5 plus 5 is 10, 3 divided by 3 is 1, 5 minus 4 is 1, 1 multiplied by 1 is 1, thus, 10-1=9
Got these banknotes at one time from the bank.

A crane is a symbol of a long (and happy) life; traditionally, and I don't know why.
The rope is shimenawa, which is a kind of Shinto symbolism, but today's Japanese society is far from religious basically, and this sort of "wreath", I think, has lost the "religious" sense.
This is a cosy cafe (organic-minded) where I enjoy a nice cup of coffee or tea and a cream puff when I'm near. (It's closed for the new year holidays.)
All is quiet on New Year's Day. Nothing changes on New Year's Day ... well, except for this ubiquitous poster.
