Tokyo has many highways (syutoko). However, most highways in Tokyo are built before Tokyo  Olympic (1964 :   Tokyo Olympic ) . Tokyo was nothing just after 2nd war. maybe, you can check many photos in the Internet about Tokyo just after 2nd war. so, the largest question is why there long distances of highways in Tokyo were built only less than 20years? Because if they were built from nothing, then it was needed more than hundreds years. the answer is there highways were reused of moat around castle. Tokyo had been capital since 3-400 years ago( Edo period :  1603 – 1868 ). so, there moats were grown using for 300-400 years. As following photos are a part of highway. You can see a wall on right side on each photo. They are a trace of moat. If you have interest in this seen, you can see Shintomicyo. I pined on a map on this blog. Syutoko 

Recently, I walk Tokyo, Japan with my wife. Our walking distance has began more than 10km for each day. Before that, I like to take photo when I walk around my life spaces, when I take bicycle and so  on. I uploaded some video when I went to cycling.  Well.... I took many photos after my mobile phone was changed. My new phone is snoy Xperia. Xperia have good quality of camera. And Xperia have good video maker which uses photos data. And, it is much easy to make small video than to use Mac Or PC softwares. So, I start to publish Tokyo walking Vlog, too.  Following video is around Kanda area, Tokyo, Japan.  I took them using Xperia and making video. I needed only 5-10 minutes.  Next video is around Ebisu (Yebisu), Tokyo Japan. Usually, we go there for buying wine. Around Ebisu station, we have favorite wine shop.  Like as above, there is not so special or not so good quality for video, however I think it is enough for vlogs.

We went to Lego-land in Denmark. However, we could not enter it at that day due to holiday. Well, we went to Lego discovery center in Odaiba, Tokyo. Some day, Lego Discovery center makes an event for  adult people.  And, we saw many items. I will write about them later. Today, I will write about dragon. Both of Hotel Legoland (denmark) and Lego discovery center (Tokyo ) have dragon.  They have common parts but bit difference. So, I write about the dragon. When you enter to Hotel Lego-land from main entrance, then green dragon gives your welcome. As following dragon. the dragon is so big more than 2 meters tall (maybe)  The dragon is much wider than a dragon of my images.  And a dragon in my images has two horns as deer. However the dragon has a horns as unicorn (uni??) However, this dragon is enough power. I like this dragon, too. The cute point is his tongue especially the fork of thongue.

When we are in trip to europe, we met several friends. Friends who we met in germany introduce us about ice cream spaghetti. We took dinner together in keln. At that time, we had a topic about ice cream. We like ice cream.  And I was thinking to go hargendaz at that time, because we saw hargendaz in hamburg central station.  In such context of our talking, they introduced about ice cream spaghetti. Ice cream spaghetti is not a spaghetti. It is an ice cream plate as following.  Above picture is not a spaghetti meat sauth. I thought it was spaghetti with Parmesan cheese, when I saw this photo after coming back to japan. It is really ice cream as following photo.  It was vanilla ice cram with You can find ice cream spaghetti in such cafe. If you can see ice cream counter on front of the shop then you may be able to take ice cream spaghetti. The friends said that you should ask menue about ice cream spaghetti before you will enter the shop....

Starbucks are most cities in the world wide. Sure, we use starbucks in some situation not only weekend but also business sean. One of my friends said that a NY cheesecake by starbucks is a best cake for him. And, it is easy to find starbucks in a city. Because we know the symbol of the starbucks, even if they are little bit difference on each countries. The coffee is not so special but the quality of coffees are not so difference.

We used 5 airports in our last trip. Copenhagen Airport, Helsinki Airport, Stockholm Airport, Frankfurt Airport and Bile Airport (Denmark). I have used CDG and london airport. This is Copenhagen airport station. I think I took this photo on last day on europe when we headed to Copenhagen airport. This is one of the express train. Some trains can being us to central station of copenhagen. However, some trains are not done to the station. You need to check it by yourself throug the schedule board as above photo. Actually, we asked to some people too much time, when we went to central station of copenhage. Following two photos are in Helsinki. I took them on 1st day of europe. We were surprised about airport station's deepness. In tokyo, we have several deep line but most case they are subway. From airport to center of station, most case, the rail line station is not so deep.  (sure, there stations are underground, too) We needed to take such long  escalators severa...
