| Meeting Markus again in Tokyo... We took a photo of us in a mirror.... The distortions on his arms remind me of Terminator 2.... | ||
Getting quieter
13 May 2003 | ||
 |
||
| As busy as Shibuya is during the daytime, it gets quieter closer to the evening.... so we headed back to Shinjuku to get a good view over the city.... | ||

Alcatrazz E.R.

 |
||
| Wonderful weirdness of Japan - You enter this place in Shibuya and then get handcuffed, they note down your blood type and everything has a Gothic Medical Prison feel... | ||
Spooky

| More sights from Alcatrazz E.R. They are a chain and there are more such restaurants - some are called Alcatrazz A.D. and are Neanderthal themed. Another restaurant was called 'Funeral'. Yummy. All the while you can order cocktails called 'Euthanasia', 'Blood Transfusion', 'Artificial Tooth', 'Nurse Love Drug', 'Luxurious Pleasure'... | ||

PRISON ESCAPE
16 May 2004 | ||
 |
||
| Suddenly it got noisy, alarm went off, our lights went out while we were drinking beers, someone rushed in and shot us in the head and then whenever they entered Jon would scream 'No Way! Stay there!'. The waiters were as scared of Jon as Jon was of them... Then we were asked politely out to watch a weird sequence where one restaurant patron had CPR performed on her by a mad doctor, he declared her dead, then lifted up her legs - then a nurse came with a huge syringe who pushed the syringe into the guest's private region. The patient lived, everyone got up and applauded and bowed. But wait... there's more... | ||
Guest Cages

||
| ...then suddenly we heard the waiters rushing around. Jon sees they have a list of names - he had given them his name - he starts shouting 'they got names! no way!' - deathly afraid that he would be given the ass-syringe treatment. We hear the waiters approach... They carry a birthday cake and sing 'Happy Birthday' and pass us by... | ||
