While waiting for a table to open up in the very small non-smoking section of a restaurant, we were able to people watch and also see some fun signs. Here is one for jeans made in Japan.
The Happy Factory - wonder what they sell.
Looking down at the sea of humanity - Tokyo on a Saturday afternoon!
Another fun way to take care of your umbrella - stick it in a plastic bag so it won't drip on their floor.
This is one of the girls we saw - dressed up so crazily and showing off for the world.
Boys use fans too!
Some of the crazy footwear.
Walking along the street.
Coming to the toy store!
One whole floor was devoted to Hello Kitty - here is a kimono and footwear with Hello Kitty designs.
Hello Kitty in kimono.
And a section of
Mun chichis!! I thought of Mark when I saw this.
Some Japanese toys from a cartoon here.
Then on to the Oriental Bazaar- loved the kimonos!
Child's kimono with obi and bow.
These are works of art.
All you need to have power is one of these headbands!
These little Daruma toys are "Weeble Wobble" types also. You are supposed to paint in the left eye when you make a goal and when you accomplish it, you paint in the right one. Also, they are to remind you that if you fall down, you need to get right back up.
Love the dragon embroidery on this one!
Rulon by a warrior in front of the Oriental Bazaar. Almost looks like twins, don't they!
Paul Stuart store - we were walking down a street with exclusive stores.

This building was built on the land that Gordon B. Hinckley bought for the Church many years ago. They built a chapel on it but later sold it for about 4 times the amount they had paid for it. That money helped build the Tokyo Temple!
Saturday must be Girls' Day because we saw so many groups of young women either shopping or eating. 
I love this sign on the subway - it says that your bottom should fit in the designated place and you should not overlap or take up two (or three) spaces.

Hey!! I resemble that Monchichi remark! :-)
I wish they would enforce that "bottom size" rule on airplanes. I always get stuck next to the "big boned" people.
