Outline of a cat on a shōji sliding door at my mother-in-law's home this morning. A warm and sunny day in the Kanto region. And this cat is making the most of it.

A supermarket in Tokyo has a few Christmas trees left and are selling them at half price. This little number here (about 1.5 meters) is just 10,500 yen or about $120. Ho, ho, ho!

About 60 seconds of traffic along Route 246 near Shibuya Station in Tokyo. The Expressway #3 runs through the area. You must be bored if you are watching this video.

Since when did Burger King enter the snack food business? Just for the record, this bag of chips was almost $5 here in Tokyo.
