Traveling through Italy
After a exceptionally hot week in Cinque Terre, we have now arrived in Tuscany - plagued by tremendous thunderstorms and heavy rainfalls. This hasn't stopped us from visiting the sites - - Florence, Siena, San Gimignano, Volterra, Piombino ,...
I even had a chance to visit an exhibit of works by Jackson Pollock, one of my favorite painters. Florence and Siena were overrun by tourists, the numbers seem to increase exponentially year over year, but close to (and after!) sunset most had returned to their hotels, leaving the medieval streets for us to roam alone. http://www.amazon.com/Clemens-P.-Suter/e/B005C1GXTE

A guard house at the imperial gardens in Tokyo
It was a pretty cold day with a biting wind blowing in from the Pacific Ocean. I can imagine the imperial gardens full of tourists in a few weeks. But readers of my books http://www.amazon.com/Clemens-P.-Suter/e/B005C1GXTE will know that at times I like it quiet and devoid of humans disturbing the scenery.
The capsule hotel in Akihabara, very clean and surprisingly quiet
No noisy or drunk guests (yet) as I encountered before in Osaka. The area I nice too - normal shops and houses.

Tokyo by Rain and Deep Underground http://youtu.be/9Mwt9DIo5n0
Pretty horrible weather today, but it was fun to visit this subterranean amine store. They even have a 18+ department. http://youtu.be/9Mwt9DIo5n0

Tokyo as the ideal backdrop for my novel Two Journeys
Many of the scenes in Tokyo remind me of my novel Two Journeys. Try to imagine the city empty of people with a lonely survivor walking the streets. http://www.amazon.com/Clemens-P.-Suter/e/B005C1GXTE Altho Tokyo is always buzzing with activity it isn't hard to imagine that it could be the loneliest place on earth.
Photo of Tokyo city from the top of the Mori Art museum.
We went here to look at The Andy Warhol exhibition on the 54th floor. The exhibition showed Andy's entire career from early 60s until the 1980s. The view of the city was extremely impressive, we could look directly at the Gardens of the Imperial Palace, at the ocean beyond as well as all the area of Shibuya and Roppongi and so on -what you can see here a little buildings with the intercity highway. We also went to Nogi Memorial, a temple dedicated to the noted general who was the hero of the Chinese Japanese and Russian Japanese wars, who committed suicide because he loved the Meiji emperor so much.

Concrete city - if you do not like concrete don't come to Tokyo
This picture you can see the Parliament of Japan. There are a lot of policemen about two protect it. Again this building was made with a lot of concrete. I don't know how many cubic meters of concrete they have put into Tokyo but it must be a mountain. They have concrete, becrete, decrete and acrete!
Cherry blossom in Tokyo close to the emperor's Palace
It is very cold here but this is the beginning of March so no wonder - the cherry trees are not blossoming yet. This one was blossoming, a lot of birds on the branches and singing. We were lucky because a lot of rain was expected but the weather was very beautiful
This was a very useful during our trip to Tokyo
It allows you to find the nearest Metro station forever you are. It was surprisingly accurate although you have to take care that is no magnetic interference close by.
Some of the advertisements in the metro in Tokyo are very confusing
No idea why anyone would need glasses to protect against spray paint
Trying to figure out the metro connections in Tokyo; how to get from Shibuya to Shinsuku
It turned out to be very easy - especially when we walked back. More and more people where facial masks these days. As I heard, there are four reasons for this: more allergies and earlier in the year (due to the global warming), five dust particles that blow over from china, to protect oneself from viruses, or to prohibit that oneself infects other people.

More on Shibuya Square
This square is build on top of one of the busiest railway and subway stations in the world. Immensely popular with young students, it is surrounded by numerous stores and shops. I liked the Foodshow the best, an underground, low-ceilinged supermarket that offers great food (e.g, Kobe beef at 5000yen for 100gram) and that takes up a lot of space between the labyrinth of metro tracks and stations. This Time article sums it up pretty nicely: http://content.time.com/time/travel/cityguide/article/0,31489,1897812_1897772_1897742,00.html
The Excel Hotel in Tokyo Shibuya. We have a room on the fourteenth floor
Fans if Two Journeys may recall that this is the place where the hero discovers that a pandemic has wiped out the population. http://www.amazon.com/Clemens-P.-Suter/e/B005C1GXTE But tonight it is as lively as always.

What I learned from my dog
We have had our dog Buddy for about five years and he learns a lot from us. I have also learned from my dog. Many things.
1. You don't need possessions to be happy
2. Enjoy your food. Table-manners only distract from the job at hand
3. It is great to be outside and to enjoy nature
4. Exercise and running about is the best thing there is, especially if we do it together
5. You don't need to own a couch because you can share it with your fellow humans
6. The pack is the most important thing in life. As long as the pack is together everything is fine
7. If somebody wants to enter the house it must be protected. Leave that to me
8. Forgive. Don't dwell on mistakes the other members of the pack have made
9. Never stop learning. You can learn something new every day
10. Don't worry about the future. Live here and now. Forget about religion
11. Why travel? Home is as beautiful as it gets
12. Sleep. Sleep a lot. Especially in the sun, even when it's hot and summer
13. I love other dogs but my master is always better
14. Be modest. Nevertheless, study your pack and learn how to play your master like a fiddle - it makes your life so much easier

Oh wonderful Daily Mail diet
A few weeks ago I read in the DM about this wonderful diet: two days eat practically nothing, normal for the rest of the week.
Great.
As I could benefit from a loss of permafat around the waste (named after permafrost; the layer of body fat that always remains) and have suffered from wanderfat as well; the grease that mass-migrates underneath the epidermis to the hips, I decided to give this diet a go,
Here my experience per week:
Week 1: severe stomach pains, lost 150 grams
Week 2: lost 75 grams, gained 350. Yellow stars and bolts of light. Sounds.
Week 3: voice if my mother in my left ear. No weight loss
Week 4: 75 gram loss. I blink slowly and often. Colleagues tell me that my breath smells "funny"
Week 5: I can't work anymore. I can only crawl, my joints hurt.
Week 6: 150 grams loss ! My stool is a tepid liquid. My hair starts to fall out.
Week 7: gained 2 kg. I can't find my glasses anymore, seem to have lost my left shoe.
Week 8: I give up. My weight is back to normal, the twitching is slowly disappearing.

The Great Dog Food Scam of 2008
The following conversation took place in the subway in Washington DC.
Man: "gosh, it is hot in here"
Woman: "not as hot as at grandma's"
Man: "you are right there! Man, she must be having a heating bill"
Woman: "not as high as her telephone bill"
Man: "oh, who is she calling?"
Woman: "grandpa"
Man: "but he died years ago!"
Woman: "No reason to stop conversing"
Man (incredulous): "you got to be kidding."
Woman (annoyed): "I talk to him too, regularly"
Man (surprised): "really? What about?"
Woman: "all kinds of topics. War and peace, clothing, the great dog food scam, Stalin, cheesecake, car repairs, detergent..."
Man (curious): the great dog food scam?"
Woman (impatient): yeah, the scam of 2008 - where they put dioxin as an additive in canned dog food"
Man: "unbelievable what people do..."
Woman: "you mean: talking to the death?"
Man: "no - turning up the heat in their houses. Or in this subway for that matter"
Woman: "yes. It is hot"
