Pics from Japan (from 2002)

Hey everyone, I was going through some pics on my computer and I stumbled across some that I took in Japan from the summer of 2002 when I went over there to visit a friend. Sorry, they're kind of random, but I thought these were interesting enough to post. Enjoy!

...and some more. Sorry about the sideways blue van, but I had to post that one. It's the only way it would upload. Japanese van tuners are silly.

...and a note about the crazy looking blue van: it just had plain silver metal steelies on it. No pimped out chrome wheels or wild wheels that should belong on something like that. Just plain hubcapless steelies. Also, all those little white lights along the bottom of the back bumper that look like they could be back-up fog lights - were actually turn signals. They lit up sequentially all the way across in whichever direction the thing was turning. Pretty wild.
