Nenmatsu Jumbo is the end of the year's biggest lottery in Japan and it still has people lining up around the block to try their luck, it goes on until 22 December and if you win the first prize you will get 300,000,000 yen = 3,000,000 EUROS. Maybe I should give it a try.
I hadn't been to Asakusa in about two decades, after the Prada video edit Akiko took me there today. It is rare that I get the opportunity to feel tall, as this was a rare opportunity, I handed my camera to Akiko to document the moment.
In the backround is the new Tokyo Sky Tree and Philippe Stark's sculpture for the Asahi Super Dry Hall.
Kiyoshi Hikawa, the Enka singer is the new idol for the 50-80 year old set.
