This past week was Silver Week (シルバーウィーク) here in Japan. I visited the southern island of Shikoku (四国). While there, I made a trip to the city of Takamatsu (高松市), and a famous park within the city, called Ritsurin Park (栗林公園).

Saturday in Yokohama

Yokohama is a large port city about 40km (25 miles) south of downtown Tokyo. It is celebrating it’s 150th anniversary this year. For 150 days (late April until late September), there are a bunch of different events and attractions. The highlight for me was the Giant Golden Robot-Spider – sure to give you nightmares if you saw it walking around your neighborhood.

A few photos from BlizzCon 2008 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA. Most of the photos didn’t turn out well since it was so dark inside the convention center. I am only posting the good ones.

Ben, my roommate from college, came to visit Los Angeles for a week. We went to the La Brea Tar Pits, and Six Flags (Magic Mountain). We also went the the USC vs Oregon game. USC dominated, 44 – 10.

Summer Visit to Japan

shyam — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 16:39:57 +0000

Namiko and I visited Japan for about two weeks. We went to her hometown in Hirosaki, Aomori. We drove around the northern edge of Aomori along the coast, and stayed in a ryokan (Furo-fushi (不老不死温泉) – literally: No Aging, No Death) right next to the ocean, with a natural onsen (hot spring), containing a high iron concentration. The water was brownish-red. We also made a stop in Tokyo to visit my host family, and to check out the Ice Cream Town at the Sunshine City in Ikebukuro.
