It was 70F and very comfortable so I decided to walk before it gets warm. I was not planning but I walked about 4 miles from my hotel in Akasaka to Tsukiji. Here are some picture I took on the way.
This airport is only $6 away from the Da-an Hotel.
Very convenient.
I arrive in Tokyo Haneda Airport.
I took monorail to Hamamatsucho and took a cab broom there to the hotel.
I am very tired ... I will try to recover using Sunday tomorrow.
This video shows what Yakuza is ...
Stay away ... This explain why tattoos are not allowed at public bath.
Many of the Fuzoku I tased about is run by Yakuza ... So I was told.
But you do not really now that. Yakuza would not like you (customer) to be scared.
Prostitution in Japan has existed throughout the country's history. While the Anti-Prostitution Law of 1956 states that "No person may either do prostitution or become the customer of it," loopholes, liberal interpretations and loose enforcement of the law have allowed the sex industry to prosper and earn an estimated 2.3 trillion yen ($24 billion) per year.
In Japan, the "sex industry" (fuzoku 風俗, literally "public morals") is not synonymous with prostitution. Since Japanese law defines prostitution as "intercourse with an unspecified person in exchange for payment," most fuzoku offer only non-coital services, such as conversation, dancing, or bathing, to remain legal.
NOTE: But remember "Prostitution Selling/Buying" is illegal in Japan. You just need to know what prostitution mean.
My parents send me a picture of their lunch at Sushiro (Kaiten Sushi) which was doing 100 yen Tuna (Maguro) sushi. They look great. I wish I were there.
There are many kinds from sweet and fruity to dry, cheap to expensive, famous to not so famous. Do you like sake cold, room temperature or warm? What would you like to eat when you drink sake?
I am traveling to Taiwan in two weeks. This will be my second trip to this country. I will be reporting from COMPUTEX ... one of the largest computer shows in the world. I really love the culture there as well.
