Ode to Odaiba: Sat 29 Jul 2006

We went to Odaiba in Tokyo Bay today. It used to be garbage land fill but now has been commercialised and changed to a little tourist island. Well Odaiba has its fair share of tourist gimmicks, like a giant ferris wheel and a mini statue of liberty. Anyway, I spent a full day there with Evan and Theresa, my classmates from school. There was a strip called 'little hong kong' and it was selling retro things in beautifully designed packages. From 1950's tin toys to Posters of actresses in the sliver screen days. It was a designer's wonderland!
