Snowy Tokyo Evening on the way to the bus station

[64birdman]

Hey. Snowed again Wednesday night while you were away.

[bushin64]

Wow! I did not know you were from Tennessee! We just had 6 inches in Nashville over the weekend. A rare occurence indeed.

It's starting to lightly snow here in Maryland too....I wish I could see the Gates at night....

[vaughnd13]

Is it eerie like creepy crawly eerie? or Sword of Doom eerie? I love spook stuff...

[RoninDave]

walking thru the gates at night is a cool spooky experience

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

I live near the ocean and rarely get snow...

I am jealous!

[markshmily]

I can't I really enjoy snow.

The roads get all messed up.

Let it snow in the mountains where it belongs.

Hey, I'm from Tennessee too. Upper East Tennessee. I'll be in Tokyo in late March through the middle of April

[RoninDave]

don't you guys usually get a fair bit of snow every winter? I went skiing in Gatinlinburgh once

[vaughnd13]

I know this may sound dum,but have you visited the Torii Gates of Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto?

[RoninDave]

several times. The best time to go is in the evening when there are few people. It has a eerie feel to it

We just had snow last week for a couple days straight, and where I am in the US it's rare to snow that heavily -- This was right after Rodger passed away, so I had the same coincidental feelings.

Strangely enough lots of little things, such as the Tokyo snow videos I've seen, have been occurring this past week that show reminders of Rodger.....and to be honest, they make me feel happier.

[CombatArchery]

so thats where the snow went ...we got diddly squat.....Great Video

Greetings from Montana usa

[RoninDave]

doesn't montana usually get covered in snow thru-ou the winter?

[enygma3d]

Where do you usually stay in Kyoto? I'm thinking of making the trip down there for a couple days while I'm in Japan, but have no idea where to stay. I'll be in Tokyo from March 25 to April 13.

[RoninDave]

I often go the lowroad and crash at a manga kissa - internet cafe. You're going during Cherry Blossom season so you might find hotels a bit full. A cheap decent hotel chain that I stay in to live the somewhat highlife is Toyoko Inn. Rooms are about $45-$60.

Looking at the sidebar... I had similar thoughts today. Funny thing, I don't much believe in coincidence.

[RoninDave]

i saw Hiroko's snow video where she felt like quitting but the snow cheered her up. Makes one wonder...

[robzo87]

Very well done. We just got done with snow but more on the way as the news speaks of.

[MageThief]

Love snow, just love it. I am from the north of Sweden and its always tons of snow there.

Nice to see snow in Tokyo.

[TELEMAKFILMS]

it might be the spirit of rodger caressing for a last time the rooftops of japan.

[RoninDave]

funny I thought the same thing. thanks, rodger!
