Koishikawa Korakuen plus picspam

The past few days have been absolutely exhausting, but on the whole, brilliant. Wednesday, Rachel took Dolphin and me to her favourite garden here, Koishikawa Korakuen (小石川後楽園). It's by Iidabashi Station, only a couple of stops down from my uni stop, Yotsuya, so was really easy to get to. It's also literally next door to Tokyo Dome, and you can see ( Read more... )

Oh my god so beautiful. It must be some governmental plot to corrupt and enslave my mind, Japanese gardens being so amazingly beautiful. (My tin hat, where is it?) I could just sit all day staaaring, man. Staaaaaaaring.

I honestly can't describe in words how awe-inspiring it is. so I hope the amateur photos speak for themselves ♥ And if it's a government plot, it's definitely one I can get behind. Mmmm tin hat. Though I have to say, having to walk past 50 sketchy dancing girl bars and hostess clubs on my way to the station every day kinda helps calm down my insane fangirling of the rest of the scenery XD;

That is totally how we're explaining the Engrish too. It's all ENGLISH just... not in any acceptable format. Love.

DSRK... Devil Summoner?! *so out of the loop* In any case, I'm glad I'm not just crazy XD I totally wish they'd wired up the matsuri lanterns last weekend; it would have looked amazing and magical and indicative of ponies and all other shiny things. You know how it is.

All that Engrish gives me joy beyond imagining. Greece was beautiful but not nearly as hilarious.

If/when I come visit you we shall have to Engrish-hunt and Seishirou-hunt

I'm on high Seishirou-alert every day, just for you! So far I've seen a lot of vets buildings and a lot of pets, but no chain-smoking ruins your life then falls in love whilst continuing to ruin your life fake Vet. Sigh. LIFE IS HARD.

I WANT TO EAT CUSTARD DOUGHNUTS WITH YOU

Don't ask. Or do, if you want. I had some today and they totally needed to be shared. That and I'm sure it's chockful of innuendo. Which we love.

If you get a large refrigerated package, I mean like HUGE, open it immediately. ): I will be in it.

I WILL TOTALLY EAT CUSTARD DONUTS WITH YOU

someday. >:

I need to find one person who doesn't love innuendo, and PUNCH THEM IN THE FACE. And I have never had a custard donut, but. Sharing food with friends is awesome :D
