Here around Vancouver it is currently sunny and cloudy.


Slightly above 10 degrees, I think. Good stuff.

We're talking about Little Tokyo, right? There's a number of little video stores spread around there that you might check out... But they might be rental stores only. I'm not sure...


Hey, what kinda cycle you got? I'd like to get an R1100S Replika, but that's dream city: :nut:

Yea in Little Tokyo, i went to the "K" bookstore(forgot the name already :shakehead: ) in Weller Court. The one on the 2nd floor... yea i work around that area so I have access to those stores but cant tell the difference between a video rental store and a store that sells videos :hehe: but thanks for all your help!!

Sure ya do... :rolleyes: :hehe:

If there's any one event (aside from the parade) you shouldn't miss, it's the Taiko demonstrations: there's numerous Taiko groups from elementary schools up through college (UCLA, UCI, CSULA, etc.) and local JACL groups... Great stuff!

Looks like the Spring is coming. The weather has been calm lately and the sun is shining :)
The snow is here by late April, no point in celebratin the "spring weather" in advance, hehe.

Aww! I feel very envious of Japanese ppl. They get to enjoy the Sakura soon.
