Alien Eyes #8 Extraordinary Ordinary Days


This is Kenta, he rocks. He writes and performs his own love ballads at the train station on Mondays. No translation required, he's got some serious soul power.





Awesome.

Upwards of 40 Japanese people have this same picture on their cameras. We spent the day hanging out in the this shopping district getting rather sauced on the side of this particular walking street. I suppose we made quite the photo opportunity because everytime we looked up from our various conversations there was another Japanese person sniping a photo of us while pretending (not at all convincingly) to take a picture of something else. So, we just started posing for the pictures, causing many embarassed bows and apologies, but also subsequent relief and offfers of thanks. All in all, it was an awesome day. And I've got to say we do look absolutely post-card beautiful. Can't blame em.

There is nothing that isn't awesome about this guy.

Ah, my city.
