Meiji Shrine – Tokyo – Jason in Japan from Jason Ozaeta on Vimeo.

I got to experience a part of Japanese religion this past Sunday at Harajuku. Meiji Shrine was built in 1920 for the late Emperor Meiji. It was rebuilt after being destroyed after WWII. It is a popular place for traditional weddings.

This has got to be one of the coolest Christmas light displays I’ve ever seen. I wish I could do something like that with all the houses in the block back home. That’d so kick Chestnut’s christmas block.

So I decided that I need a better handsfree thing for my FRS radio. So this is what I got from eBay.

All I need now is a dark suit and I’d be a regular secret service agent! It’d be totally bitchin if it would work on my cell.

Gotta do early morning laundry! If I do go snowboarding tomorrow I’ll need clean clothes.

Here’s some shots of the fireworks from the festivities last night:

We didn’t do a homemade fireworks show this year though. Bob went to Reno for the weekend. Looks like this is the first year we missed it. Maybe we’ll still do one later this weekend. I still have my fireworks I bought a few days ago. >=)
