Get me down from here…

Natto
I can’t believe it. Steve likes natto!
Dinner with Clunesy
We’re eating some sashimi that translates into English as “grunt”. Think I prefer the Japanese name.
Demo hits Shibuya
This ragged bunch – only a handful of them – decided to have an anti Nike march in Shibuya this afternoon. They get a police escort, but in this hedonistic shopping district, I suspect not too many are paying attention.
Subway manners campaign
“Please do it on the mountain” OK, I will.
Kevin07 buys me dinner
Thanks Kevin for a lovely dinner under the embassy marquee.
Baseball final
Here we are at the Tokyo Dome, watching the final of this year’s corporate baseball final. We’re getting into the spirit with our ouen-butsu (cheer-gear), beer and eda-mame.
Another afternoon at the baseball
An exciting afternoon at Tokyo Dome – a close 5-4 win, sending us into the final tomorrow night.
2-0 in the 6th at Tokyo Dome
It’s ENEOS v Mitsubishi Heavy Industry at the Tokyo Dome. This is my first ever time to a ball game, and when my colleagues headed out after lunch, I was right with them. This is the 2nd round of the competition, and we’re ahead!
