I left Japan almost a year and a half ago and of course I miss a couple of things here and there — Hakata Ippudo ramen, snowboarding, Amazon, Rakuten, sakura during spring, ginkgo trees in autumn, Shinjuku, Showa Kinen Park, Nagayama, kafunsho (NOT) — okay, maybe not just a couple of things.

I mean, who on earth would want to wear white while traveling anyway?! Apparently this lady, tsk. But good for me because she served as a great centerpiece to the hustle and bustle of Sunday-afternoon markets heading towards the Ruins of St. Paul’s Cathedral.
