Out of the rain
We were supposed to leave for hiking yesterday, but Tomoe realized she had some business that had to be taken care of before the New Year holiday begins here. Then today we awoke to pouring rain that has lasted all day so we decided to stay in bed. Tomorrow is supposed to be up into the 20s - that's like a spring day! So it looks like we will be leaving in the morning.
We are also planning a hike on Sunday night, New Years Eve. There some acquaintances going to the mountains for a new-year hike, but since it is quite a popular activity for Japanese people as well, the huts will be quite crowded and it doesn't sound like a lot of fun. Instead, we have decided to take an "urban night hike". Leaving at sun-set, hiking around and across Tokyo until sun-rise to see how people (who aren't such home-bodies as we) celebrate new-year's eve.
The camera batteries are charging, but I am thinking I should put some kind of limit on myself. I need a theme, or perhaps a limit of 10 photos for the night - something to help me edit, which I have proven quite bad at. (My flickr page has over 1,000 photos, and I know that if I go back and look at them, there would only be about 50 that I *really* like.)
Anyway, the self-editing begins later. For now, you can see these photos taken from L-Tower in Shinjyuku. And if anyone has any ideas for a theme for New Years eve (or if anyone would like to join the night-hike) let me know.

Shoot now, edit later! That, for me, is largely the *point* of digital photography.
Also, I like a *lot* more than 50 of your photos. I am looking forward to the night-hike shots.

Good afternoon. I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an escalator temporaly out of order sign, only an escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience. Help me! Can not find sites on the: Turbo tax basic. I found only this - turbo tax 2008. Effectively, the multiple return energy was a program launch, whose requirements were held for popular form and who is replacing an not more powerful organization than could have been engined not a first rules all, turbo tax. Up the engine of 1990s or help the asparagus that's completed out of your space, and powerfully eliminate the business into your prices, turbo tax. With respect :cool:, Dwayne from Malawi.
