So the 23rd Typhoon has hit Japan, arriving in Tokyo tonight. We decided to go see a movie anyways (I Robot). On our way back, we stopped by Shibuya to have a bite at Samrat, our favorite local curry shop. Hachiko Crossing, the giant intersection seen in, for example, Lost in Translation, was a completely flooded, forming a lake knee deep in places. Sewer gratings are like geisers gushing water (smelly water I tell you) back up onto the streets. Luckily it's not too bad in Tokyo so far but I hear a lot of people in Yokohama are on evacuation alert. Fun times.
