Goldilocks Gaijin

Here is an example of when simply being foreign doesn't garner enough attention for some people in Japan. Spotted this guy crossing the street in Shibuya. When the light changed he skipped across like a little girl, curls bouncing and dress flowing in the breeze. Avaunt guard performance art? Or stupid moron? History will decide...

Don Quixote in Shibuya

Headed down to Shibuya to buy an iPod dock and remote at the Apple Store to the tune of $60 bucks. Afterwards I went to the bargain basement store Donkihote to pick up a few things.


In addition to a generic iPod dock and remote for only $10 (Doah!), they also stock all your daily necessities:

Like maid outfits for all those budding Lolitas -and there appear to be quite a few of them! I spotted two lined up outside a particularly popular McDonald's (though their outfits were too posh to have been purchased at lowly Donki.)

A few blocks away I spotted something familiar, but couldn't believe my eyes at first. It looked like somewhere in the OC. Outback Steak House in Shibuya? WTF?
