Japantown -- August 27, 2011

Peace Pagoda
Today our daughter had to go to a training class at the Chancery, so we went to Japantown to have lunch. They were having a J-Pop festival, so lots of people were running around in costumes. We walked our daughter up to the Chancery, then came back to walk around Japantown. I wish they had a store that carried yakyu-related items, like caps and jerseys. I couldn't even find anything in the Kinokuniya Bookstore.

I took the photo of the Peace Pagoda today.
