I also spotted a shark on a boat tour in Cairns, Australia. I was on board enjoying buffet lunch while the rest of the people were in the water. I kept silent and watched the shark for a minute because I didn't want to panic everyone. It swam away fortunately. Yes, I hear that Hayama and Zushi area is livable. I've been to Morito Beach for a BBQ party. Very nice! Good thing that you saved your hands! I also spotted a shark on a boat tour in Cairns, Australia.

I went sea-kayaking twice in New Zealand. The first time there was a shark swimming around our kayaks. Sounds scary but actually the shark was tiny and not so dangerous we were told. We were also told not to put our hands in the water though. My friend lives down in Hayama. He loves it down there and often goes swimming. Sounds cool. I went sea-kayaking twice in New Zealand.

]]> Comment on Harley Davidson Exhibition in Yokohama by Edster http://www.yokohamaliving.com/2008/06/18/harley-davidson-exhibition-in-yokohama/#comment-27 Edster Mon, 07 Jul 2008 15:51:41 +0000 http://www.yokohamaliving.com/?p=56#comment-27 Looks interesting. To bad I won't be there to see it. My best rides were in Japan. I used see actor Fujii Tatsuya on his harley in passing when riding in Zushi. There was an interesting history between Harley and Japan back in the 1930's. The bike was known as a "Rikuo". Loosely translated it means "Road King". Seemingly the first Harley Road king was made in Japan! Most Harley fans aren't aware of this and will become very heated if you told hem such. Japanese harley riders are a cool bunch of folks.

Last time I went there was to see Mr. Bean. The lobby is spacious and the seats are very comfortable. The English map you made is great!

Hmmm...There are some talented people out there. "A dog marking his territory" is a good metaphor. I like it. Yes, you can call the wall near Sakuragicho staion mural arts!

Usually, I choose quality over quantity for food. I go to Shin-Yokohama once a month to change train on the way to work, and when I go to Nissan Water Park in the Nissan Stadium. That is a great place for having a swim or enjoying jet bath, aloma sauna, etc. Yes, Mr. Donut is good because you can get free coffee refills. Usually, I choose quality over quantity for food.

Speaking of donuts though, one of my friends gave me a Krispy Kreme donut not so long ago. They are so famous that I almost thought that they would be amazing. It was just OK though. I like Mr. Donut. Good size and good taste. I think there is a Doughnut Plant New York in Queen's Isetan at Yokohama Station too. Regarding Shin-Yokohama, I also hardly ever go there but recently I had to in order to do research for a job. I saw the big construction and while it seems that it will be an ugly thing even when finished, it will be very functional. It's not so easy to get across the road near that station.

]]> Comment on What is your favorite Japanese Beer Company? by Admin http://www.yokohamaliving.com/2008/03/20/what-is-your-favorite-japanese-beer-company/#comment-18 Admin Fri, 27 Jun 2008 05:14:17 +0000 http://www.yokohamaliving.com/2008/03/20/what-is-your-favorite-japanese-beer-company/#comment-18 I have to admit that I voted for Kirin. I used to be an Asahi Superdry man but I now prefer Kirin Ichiban Shibori. Roughly translated Ichiban Shibori means No. One Squeeze. That's kind of funny. My main squeeze is an old-fashioned way of saying my girlfriend. I have to admit that I voted for Kirin. I used to be an Asahi Superdry man but I now prefer Kirin Ichiban Shibori.
