Obama, Aso and Guns in Ueno
Today is Obon Buddhist holiday.
Most people are off and either taking it easy, or
returning to see their family.
I hadn’t ventured into Tokyo for a few days due to other plans, and rain, so
I in the late afternoon, walked around Ueno and Asakusa. I needed a new pair of
rather large Zori (Japanese sandals) and there aren’t many places that carry a 30 cm, or size
12 in Tokyo. It was hot, and I wandered around for a little bit.
