One afternoon in Tokyo...

Sometimes, you are too busy with your own daily life and easily forget how other people are having their lives in the same city. One afernoon, Laurent and I took some walk in Tokyo's typical residential area. We witnessed pieces of people's real lives: shopping at supermarkets, children after school in a park, small shops only knowen by thier neighbors, and a silent shrine totally blended in the neighborhood, etc.






We found this active old man taking daily drive (!!) with his auto-wheelchair ;)) How cute is that? But this kind of scene made me feel a bit nostalgic. It was like telling me that I forgot something about real life and real people. Interesting thing about Tokyo is that you can still find lots of real life just around the small corners of futuristic buildings. Sometimes, it's very nice to stop and look around to re-discover where you stand.
