shibuya

Tokyu Toyoko-line terminal at Shibuya station was used for 89 years. 420 thousand passengers/day passed through the station. March 15, 2013, The Ground Station was replaced to underground one for connecting another underground line. I tried to record the the view from the train window, using multi camera :-) The sight from the elevated line might be not special, It’s an everyday affair in Tokyo, but it provided precious experience for me. I loved it.

In this year, they carried their F1, and demonstrated at not only the event but a pubric way for Japanese Eathquake Disaster Charity.

Geta Smith

When my working time, I’m wearing my Geta, woody belt sandal, for this ten years. But the belt ( called Hanao ) was in rags by the daily usage. I tryed to find “Geta Smith” to repair it. Long time ago, more shoe shop had hte Hanao repair service. But today, we don’t have enough opportunities to wear a Kimono with Geta, and such as shop was decreased by the changing our lifestyle. I wish more peoples use Geta more casually. Fortunately,there was earlier generations shoe shop in my town, and I could order to repair it. I can keep to wear the Geta for ten more years.
