crusin' in the hood

These days have been so enjoyable, we have been out a LOT, its so nice not to get fried every time you step out the front door! Some days have been raining, good for my grass, but mostly its good for the mind and body to get out. Tokyo is a great place to poke around and explore because if you want to, you can walk on a different road every day and not walk to same place twice! But it is a noisy place, at least every 5 to 10 mins a siren of some kind, the beep beep of reversing trucks, roar of cars and scooters and the general background hum of traffic. But, there are pockets of quiet, little silences here and there, when the lights turn red for one direction and just before the other set turns green......
There is also humor in unsuspecting places...for those who can read this, you're already smiling for those how cant it translates as "ass support".......but the meaning isnt nearly as funny as the pronunciation.....its actually "earth support" some kind of company (energy-I think).......so if you're ever in Japan and some one says "You need ass support" they are not being rude!!
