4,000 people joined our Halloween Kid's parade at the Roppongi Hills this year.
Each year, I'm so happy to see them kids wearing such adorable costumes! A lot of the girls wore Disney princess dresses and many boys had on dinosaur suits.
This year's outfit for the MC (me) was this:
(Jaky wore his tux and mascot-ed on stage)
I really like Shanghai. The Antique-Modern collaboration is ravishing.Rather than tearing down Neo-classic buildings, they are so good in remodeling, while keeping the good of history.I think Japan should look up to how they obtain the good of old-ness.My Chinese lessons paid off somewhat as even hotel limo drivers didn't speak a word of English.So my stay was much more pleasant than last year, or the year before. I've been making trips to Shanghai 3 consecutive years for the F1.Although it was random, this was the first time tha...Read more
@Fuji Circuit.My 5th year to watch the race.This year is David Coulthard's last year as a racer so I insisted that I watch from his pit.Red Bull's gallery area is nice and equipped. Unlike the Ferrari pit, they have a big glass booth for the spectators and a provided fridge filled with Red Bulls!Unfortunately, David's chassis completely demolished right after the starting...I was so shocked I cried ...Read more
I MC-ed for the World Judo Tournament in the weekend. It took place at the Tokyo Budokan on Sunday. Results?The Men's Japan team didn't even win 3rd place...It was a little sad for them to lose the Japanese sport in their home country...BUT!!!The Women's Japan Team won Championship!!!!YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kinda reflects how women in Japan are getting much tougher than men these days. Well, at least in terms of relationship. (what do you say, mens?)Read more
Since I couldn't make it to Spore F1, I had the honor to watch the MotoGP held at Motegi.
For you race fans, I added photos on my album page;)
went to Mario's new restaurant for the 4th time.
I love his restaurant, it's filled with happy vibes.
This time I took THE Hawaiian Ukulele player, Jake Shimabukuro.
(Japanese go-sei based in Hawaii)
I had the honor to get to know him through my interviews on J-wave a few years ago.
He's here again for his Japan tour.
Jake's the most appreciative guy I've ever met with a smile that takes you straight to Hawaii.
If you haven...Read more
