Great.  I need to install a driver for the floppy drive on the laptop before I can load the photos from my camera.  Plus I think I got an allergic reactions to the cantaloupes I had on the flight, so now I can't feel my upper lip.  I can only hope there's some way of uploading the photos while on vacation, or this would become a pretty pointless exercise.  Today was mostly a shopping day, with the highlight being entering both A Bathing Ape boutiques in Japan.  I started wondering if this vacation was going to be more than shopping and wondering if Japanese youth culture was as shallow as the latest fashion trend.  I dunno, but when you saw more women wearing stacked boots & carrying Louis Vuitton than not, it's hard to not imagine it as some perverted social uniform.  This coming from someone who lives in New York.  At least the food rocks.  But then I started wondering about going to Tokyo Disneyland to escape the fashion madness.

This was also the first day I was told shrooms are legally sold in Japan as "medicinal."

Token subway photo.  Akasaka (the district where Tony & stayed).	"Monster," in armor of Louis Vuitton handbag, miniskirt, stacky boots.  And they're "all that kind of brown color."  Outside Shibuya train station.	These schoolgirls were even cuter when they turned around, but I didn't get my camera ready in time.  Shibuya train station.
Sample Japlish apparel, Harajuku.  Most of the Japlish shirts were made in Mexico, apparently.	Yes, Tokyo also has the Ketchup Bombin' Crew.  Harajuku.	Quick! Get your stacky boots before next season's fad!
Actual size.  What's scary is that this wasn't the only time we saw miniature bikes (which are fully functional).  Harajuku.	Stacky boots in action.  They're pretty ubiquitous in Shibuya.  And the rest of Tokyo.  Harajuku.	I'm convinced this was manufactured by a company whose name rhymes with "Schmaxiswear."  Harajuku.
