Dogs with fake smiles

I love starting my days with a smile 🙂 , these pictures helped today. It is a meme with pictures of Shiba dogs being forced by their owners to smile. My favourite the first one, because the dog doesn’t seem to care at all.

New magic tricks by Cyril Takayama

Cyril Takayama, probably my favorite magician has new magic tricks online. The most fascinating thing about Cyrcil is that he performs all his magic tricks while walking on the streets of Tokyo or inside restaurants an cafeterias where the environment is very difficult to control.

The trick that starts at minute 8:00 is just amazing!

If you love to be surprised by Cyril I’m sure you will also enjoy these two extra videos with two hours of footage filled with magic:

Memory alley – 思い出横丁

Omoide-yokocho (思い出横丁) could be translated as “Memory lane” or “The alley of the memories”. Among my friends we call it “The Yakitori street” because most of its restaurants are tiny yakitori places.

It is a very photogenic place and it is nice to have yakitori in any of its restaurants, not for the quality of its food but because of its retro-flavor, its “buildings” are probably the oldest near Shinjuku Station. It feels like being Deckard having noodles at the beginning of Blade Runner.

If you go to Omoide-yokocho for some yakitori and beers, beware of drunken salarymen 😉
