Ginza

On Sunday Drew and I headed to Ginza to wander around.  Well, actually our plan had been to go to the zoo, but when we arrived we saw a sign saying that the pandas were not on display because they had been removed for mating.  Sorry, but I'm not wasting my time if I can't see the pandas.  We all know that pandas are not the best at procreating, so I'm a little worried about how long this process will take.  Hopefully, the pandas will be back on display soon so I can see them before we leave in two months.

Before getting to Ginza, we stopped in at our favorite doner kebab joint.  The kebab man even lent me his hat for the picture.  There are no tables, so it is a messy experience, but totally worth it.

Ginza is the fancy part of Tokyo with all of the high-end shops. You can see Seiko in the background.  Armani, Gucci, etc. were all nearby.  Most of the time I feel too out of place to go in half the stores.

It had been a beautiful day, around 70 degrees and sunny.  Then all of a sudden this rolled in...

Everyone whipped out their masks.  We found out later that this wasn't a new wave of the Yellow Dust, just strong winds that blew around some of the Yellow Dust that had already blown in earlier that week.  Either way, I was ready to take shelter.
