we heart you japan..

oh yes people, life is goood! when you used one of these rude-boys you know there aint no going back. gotta find a distributor back home...

..control panel on this thing rocks. seat temp, shower strength etc etc.

then theres the akihabara district tokyo - or electric town as its known. tech junkies paradise, and where youll find the steek-o in its natural environment..

then theres just the randomness on the streets. man these cosplay - costume play - chicks are crazy..

anyway, trying to sort out the bullet train to kyoto online here. gonna try and find some traditional japan before coming back to tokyo for a few more days madness. btw, we booked the park hyatt - from lost in translation film fans - so we gonna lord it! so prob wont be any more updates until bangkok then, plus ive nearly caned the ol bandwidth limit here, so for now some more random pix.

boo-yaa!

pudong district, across from the bund in the good ol whore of the east, shanghai.

partay like its 1999 hong kong stylee! lychee martinis and whisy sours, on at least the 25th floor, overlooking this..

btw, that pic took from the famous star ferry, crossing over to hong kong island - hence crapola quality!

some more mongo madness-

no trumpets pal or its porridge!

mmm...nips.

on a serious tip i forgot to mention this place. gandan, central ulaan bataar. main temple. inside is a 26/27m tall buddhist statue/idol that essentially left us speechless. cant remember which one right now btw - female, compassion, four arms doing that little cool thing with her fingers, third eye on forehead, anyone any ideas? - anyway, i mean the whole thing is covered in gold, with a shedload of precious stones making up the 3rd eye. unfekkinbelievable. couldnt take any pictures of it though. couldnt find a ladder either...ahem! he he... seriously cool and a massively potent symbol of mongolian independence. unforgettable.

right, better book that train. see yall in a few weeks...
