Nihongo Notes: Yoyogi Park, Tokyo - The Park Of Awesomeness

  • feitclub · 10 months ago
    Yeah, Yoyogi is really nice. I went there for the first time in the fall and, despite seeing no dancers at all, thought it was a wonderful place to relax. If I lived in Tokyo I think I'd go there almost every weekend.

    That's awesome. I especially liked the Elvises. (Or should I pluralize that at Elvi?)

    I live about 10 minutes walk from the park .... it's a great place to find some topics and take some photos.

    Gotta love the greasers in Yoyogi. They are actually cool guys if you can match their toughness. They will try to treat you like shit at first, but if you show them you are not scared they mellow out real quick.

    Elvii, with two i's, I'd imagine. Like Hippopotamii, or Walrii.

    Yoyogi Park is awesome, but the police suddenly decided to stop much of the Sunday fun there - bands and street performers around the park are now banned - in November.

    I first filmed teh Elvi on super8 at Yayogi about 15 years ago. On a subsequent trip i got told that the fad had passed. Good to see them back. Even though these guys look tough - most are about 5 ft high. Hmm. Classic.
