Dav and I went for a motercycle ride after brunch to digest the big breakfast. When we took a break to sit for a bit, we found the strangest tree. Looked like a Dr. Seuss sorta tree. The tree looked like it was shedding its bark but by making little sections curl up. Very decorative, but strange.

Dav and I had brunch with Doug, Miyo, Doug's mom, and baby Andy. The last time I met Doug was in Tokyo earlier this year. He was there on a business trip at the same time my brother was too (by coincidence). Doug and Miyo used to live in Tokyo when my brother lived there years ago.
I posted back then on Tokyo Tidbits a Korean BBQ night with Doug, my brother, and Stephen (my sister -in-law's brother) So if you've been reading along, you'll know all these people. Anyway, what I wanted to say was it was really cool meeting up with Doug and family. Kind of made me feel that my Tokyo life isn't too far away. Meeting the same people here and there...the space in between feels less, you know?
Doug was involved in getting SuperDeluxe open in Roppongi - where the First International Moblogging Conference took place. Everything seems to somehow connect one way or the other.
Andy, their cute cute baby, is 2 years old and absolutely adorable. Just had to say that. Hope you can tell from the pics.

Sion, a friend from our BM camp circle of friends, owns a wholesale fish store in Oakland. I had to drop off Christopher there after he helped me move the cheapo sofa I bought. It's hard to see from the pics, but it's amazing. He has all sorts of rare fishies that people with very special tastes want...including octopi and nurse sharks! The first pic is of a baby octopus. Sion fed him some crab and we were watching it slither towards it. The last pic is Sion 'petting' the baby shark. I can tell Sion has a soft spot for the baby as he explained in caring detail how he raised him from when he was tiny and now the shark recognizes him.
