The second half of my pictures from Tokyo. (Part one is here.) In a nutshell, more shopping, more traveling on the underground, more running around aimlessly trying to find stuff at night and Sumo.
The Sumo tournament was pretty impressive, but looong. We were there for 8 hours I think. I definitely felt for the camera guy flattened by Baruto (at 2’30” in the video below).

In June I travelled to Tokyo for about a week with Max and Xavier. In between recovering from jetlags and recovering from Asahi and Kirin I took some photographs.
It’ a pretty cool city. Busy and crazy, but cool. The pics here are from the Meji Shrine, the next two from and of the Tokyo Tower, the massive crossing is somewhere near our hotel, the next three from Yokohama, the runway is from the train station adjacent to our hotel, the last two are of Max and Xavier.
I’ll post the second half soon.
