Robson Street x Granville Street


It is beside SEARS department store.
It is not so far from Vancouver public library.
It is near from Chapter's book store.
It is just several second from Vancouver Art Museum.
It is kind of bus terminal to go somewhere from downtown.

When I was in Vancouver,
I was waiting for public bus alone.
I met someone just by chance.
I went to movie theater along this street with someone.
I hanged around with someone whole day.
I picked up a slice of pizza in front of bus stop late night.
I pretended to be a adult in T&A like Cecil.

Yes, it is one of memorable places for me.

Frank Secret


You know, The most of the shrines are selling these kinds of goods that are bringer of good luck, but those are not only good-luck talismans but also PRODUCTS.

I don't know why people get this kind of things. If something is really luck thing, it must be priceless. Yes, priceless.

Price of these things different from SIZE; price of big things is higher than small one. If something is luck, it doesn't matter big or small.

In addition, one year later, people who got this kind of stuff will throw them away. Yes, if something is really luck, it mustn't be thrown things out.

Yep, it is open secret.

Heliport in Kamo River




I already took this place so many times in this blog. Yep. this is one of my favorite places in Kyoto. I thought it is just calm place, but one day it was Heliport.... Of course, it is my first time to see this kind of scenery. The helicopter was for emergency transportation of the sick.

It was really above my head because I thought Japanese society prefer to compliance behavior. This situation is pretty rare cases.
