Finally, i got brians pictures and now my composition is complete. Here are the highlights of our (brian, nick, lance and myself) japan experience.


TOKYO



mr president bush sama!



we went to this badass classic game store in akihabara. there was a neogeo pocket color for 140 yen!



tokyo tower! (good job brian)

here are a couple from asakusa, the big touristy part of tokyo.








real live harajuku girls! IN HARAJUKU!



these were greasers, greasing. dear god this was fantastic.

here are a few from the templey area of tokyo, kamakura.














this beach really depressed me. it's the dirtiest thing about japan. everything else is imaculate.



this food was delicious. it's called okonomiyaki, and needless to say, it makes me cream with flavor.



SHABU SHABU! boil em mash em STICK EM IN A STEW!

KYOTO











this was all one temple area. it was pretty nice, it was like an elusive haven on the hill. literaly, we walked up a hill and there was this joint. siiiikkkkkk....



Kyoto is an urban city who's urban sprall was halted in the 1970s due to differing interests in feng shui. nah i just made that shit up.



here's one long ass hall we were walking down. and clever little brian green thought he'd stop a while and take a picture (like every where else. slow ass! hahaha <3) i'm really greatful he did, or else nunya could see these pictures. heart.



yes that's a wrapper. HOWEVER, i'm macking on a melon pastry bun. it was delish.



i swear to god we spent a hundred dollars trying to get candy out of this little fuck machine.

this is why i wanted to go to kyoto, but morely japan.


THE MOUNTAIN OF GATES! i don't even remember what the shrine was called. eh... it was pretty though.









halfway point on the mountain is this shrine, with wooden tomb"stones".




I'M COMIN' DOWN THE MOUNTAAAAAAIN!


and that's the fin to our kyoto stay. it was my favorite part of japan. the people were nice, the town was convenient, and everything had a very homey feel to it, homie.

OSAKA





osaka is apparently famous for their tacoyaki (octopus balls) they sucked, in my opinion. brian probably liked them though.



it's DAMN hot in southeast asia during the summer. shhhiii...





osaka castle is purdy.

MT. FUJI



our venture begins! a quest that would end up being like 13 hours of hell!


i wouldn't say that if this bitch hadn't gotten me in a bad mood. i had a headache and she passes me a bottle and is like "DOZO! dozo..." little did i know at the time, but this woman poisoned me. or something. i wanted to throw up the rest of the time. it sucked.

here's the terrain we're working with...




that's the top. brian was a homeboy and stuck with me the whole time.

we get to the top for sunrise, and what do we find? IT'S FUCKING CLOUDLY AS SHIT WATER! we froz our asses off. as you can see we had LIGHT sweaters and shorts while everyone else is in snow gear. thanks god. thank you.

ON THE WAY DOWN.... (ryan cabrera)












that's the end of fuji, gooch rash and death blisters on the heals and all, and most of the trip. all we need to do now is



BAYUM!

so that was the bulk of the trip. sorry for making my babies wait in anticipation! HA...

do comment and tell me how you feel!

yeah that was one effing good time. i'm glad i had the experiences, good or bad.
