Last week was the first time that I ventured out on my own in Vader gear.

The helmet is heavy and the lenses steam up in no time - not much fun ^^;
Went by train and later met up with Hector in Shibuya to shoot Dance Vader.

The limousine bus that takes you from Narita airport to central Tokyo parked outside the Columbia Music offices.
I took this once and will never take it again - took 3 hours to get from the airport.
I usually take the Skyliner train to and from the airport - comfortable seats and faster than the Narita Express (and cheaper).

A poster on the Tokyo metro of Shibuya many moons ago. Love seeing retro pics like this.

This is what ticket machines used to look like on the Tokyo Metro.

A Japanese version of Nasi Goreng. Tasted nice but not much like the Nasi Goreng in Malaysia or Singapore.

Yes I do eat at home sometimes ^^;
With the current schedule of meetings with clients etc, eating out is unavoidable.

Didn't manage to go out for dinner yesterday but will do so in the evening. Spending the day programming before I leave. How are you spending your Christmas?
