Japan Photo Broken wiper

We spent the weekend outside of town, and last night we took the bus back home. It's usually a 2h30 ride, but it was raining and a wiper decided to break about halfway... We had to transfer to other buses going in the same direction, and I ended up sitting next to a blond cyberpunk guy who wore Tron-like clothes and took 120% of his seat. It was less than comfortable.

To entertain myself from the time the bus entered Tokyo, I kept searching for Wi-Fi networks on my iPod Touch. Lists of 4 screens in the Akihabara were fun, but the best were two networks called ButaBooBoo and BooBoo2 somewhere near Asakusa. :)

We eventually made it to our Shinjuku destination, 40 minutes later than expected.

On a happier note, in another bus the day before, this kitsch lighting with cheap chandelier-like ornaments inside an orange plastic box got my attention.

OI There is a gaijin in shot 3 :P
Be that as it may, is that you?

Did you buy the touch in Japan or somewhere else? I'm curious if I'd bring my touch to Japan someday if the wi-fi will work.

Yes that's me. :) I took that photo randomly without expecting to end up in it.

And no fear, wi-fi should work! There's not much free wi-fi around to use though.
