leisure pleasure

day 14

we've ordered bikes. i haven't been so excited since christmas when i was 10. my feet feel like i've been beating them with mallets. now, i can do the same thing to my seat. seven days to pick-up, and i'll be counting every one.



exercise is a funny thing. and in tokyo, you certainly wouldn't want to be seen doing it outside. this is a deluxe range, at rooftop.






and here's the budget version. distance to the hole: 6 yrds.






same building, 7th floor. remember, it's important to dress right.






same building, 6th floor. this is the only time i've seen lycra in tokyo. the guy jogging was weaving somewhat - the track is a dizzy 60m circuit with a tunnel.






same building, 5th floor. i can touch the ceiling in here, making the lights a serious hazard. i'm sure they've worked that out though. i wonder what this does in an earthquake.






same building, 4th floor. ok, here's something my speed. actually, the 3rd floor was even better. the ubiquitous gaming centre. it's hard to capture pictures of these places, because we can't handle the cacaphony for more than about 30 seconds. i'll give it a shot another day.
