Higashi-Kurume
Black-Eye Stream is a favourite place for walkers, runners, and families on weekends. I've often gone for long runs along it while preparing for a race. -

Looking west over Higashi-Kurume towards Mt. Fuji from the rooftop parkade of Ito Yokado department store. If you squint you can just make out Mt. Fuji in the middle-left of the photo. -

Someone with a sense of humour named their shop "Keep Going." It's almost at the top of a very steep hill on the way from Higashi-Kurume to Kiyose. -
Kiyose
Outside the station at Kiyose. Seiyu is one of the big department store chains in Japan. -
Kiyose
A small shrine (to cats?) tucked away down an alley. -

This sticker reminded me of my brother Lee's drawings. Although, if you visit his Web site (www.LeeHutzulak.com), I think you'll agree his are much better. -
Shibuya
For my life-long buddy, Lee. -

Mmm ... hotel cheese. -
