8 eights
for January 8th 2019
I like taking photos of the number 8 and we like to show them to you for our first post of the year. If you are interested in past years you can see them here: 2015, 2017, & 2018.
The 8s in this post come from a trip to Japan that Brandy, Carmen and I took in October. We traveled to Tokyo and then to Sendai for our exchange daughter’s wedding!
#1
The Mori Art Museum in Roppongi Hills featured an exhibition that invited visitors to draw on the walls.
#2
One of the more unusual things we did in Japan this time around was visiting the Zao Fox Village in Fukuokayatsumiya. I snuck up on this cool dude to snap a pic of his jacket.
#3
Tokyo has a magnificent subway and train system. Of course there are lots of 8s in any train station, this one is in the Roppongi Station.
#4
Shopping is a very popular pastime in both Tokyo and Sendai. This 8 sign was on the 8th floor of a department store in Sendia.
#5
I always love taking the Shinkansen (the bullet train) and this time we got to be in car 8 from Tokyo to the Sendai Station.
#6
And I got to sit in seat 8.
#7
A cool poster in Shibuya.
#8
We didn’t have much time at Tokyo Disney, but the time we did spend was fun. . . and was very cold! This 8 was from Journey to the Center of the Earth!
Thanks for reading!
May the magic 8’s follow you into 2019.
