TOKYO SNOW: “Stay at home” they said
February 9, 2014 12:50 pm
You may have seen on the news that Tokyo experienced the heaviest snowfall in over a decade this weekend.
Since I had studless snow tyres on my van, as well as chains, a shovel and tow-rope in the back, I thought I’d go out for a little night drive and see how everything looked.
東京の大雪ドライブをしましょう!これは川越街道。
This was about 11:00PM, and there were almost no cars driving other than taxis.
池袋です。誰もいない!
These are the trees in the park outside the Imperial Palace.
皇居前の木。きれい!
This is the Marunouchi entrance to Tokyo Station. On a Saturday night, there’d usually be people and cars everywhere.
東京駅丸の内口前。雪が20センチぐらい深かった。
I don’t think I’ve ever put a pic of my daily driver on here. It’s a Toyota Townace Noah Field Tourer. Slow, but gets the job done.
Part two of the JCCA show coming tomorrow.
これは私の通勤車です。働き者だ!お疲れ様でしたノアちゃん。
