Nagoya for Christmas

Well, not exactly Christmas...

The Little Engine that Could
Or could it?

After having English Circle with "My Ladies" Saturday morning, P, Chris and I jumped a train to Nagoya for some Christmas shopping and just getting out of town for a bit.

Everyone settles in with their cameras.

We ran into David at the station, and made him sit with us.
This is what has been dubbed his "album cover" shot.

David Will Get on a Train.
We parted from David at the Higashiyama Line, he went his way, we went ours.

From the station, it was direct to Michael and Youka's Christmas Party.

Thanks for the pics, Sayuri!
