Just strolling along the Ginza!

I've seen this bag elsewhere with brand name misspelled. 

Love the shoes and hat combo! Hope to get some more shots after the typhoon passes!

Gray and white to suit the climate!

Waiting for the boyfriend and warmer weather.

A very nice "end of spring" look on a chilly June day.

Dressed for the coolness of 1 June

Still chilly during rainy season in Japan. I know there's an umbrella in the bag!

"These Boots Are Made For Walking" Ginza

June,  but still cold enough for boots in Tokyo.

As Vibrant As Ever!

We last visited Ginza two days before the disaster that struck Japan. For a while the stunned nation naturally went into shock and mourning. I didn't know what to expect when we returned. I was quite happy to see that normalcy has pretty much returned to Ginza. The young lady you see here was carrying a very large box, much too large for her petite size 4 body. As she paused to rest, I asked her if she needed help, always the gallant, but she declined with a series of smiles. I knew then that this would be the photo to resurrect "Panache Japan".
A friend asked me how Japan would get along after the tragedy of March 11. I told him that Japanese endure hardship in harmony with each other, have done it before and will do it again.

Really Swamped!

Please be patient, we just got back from Tokyo and I have to go through a lot of new photos to post a new "Spring Edition".
Go over and visit my other blog http://gankojiji.blogspot.com/ while I work on this one. Should be up witin days!
