Old ladies, in old Tokyo, having a right old time

There’s no denying that supermarkets and department stores are perfect for the one-stop shop, but when it comes to a bit of banter, the more traditional way still takes some beating.

    Asakusa area? (that’s a wild guess)

      No, but I can see why you thought so. Looks very similar in that shot. Was actually near Monzen-Nakacho station. Never been there before, but a fascinating little area.

        I immediately thought of Asakusa too. ^^

        I guess both have similar feel?

        Love the shot. I wonder what the ladies were having a laugh about. 🙂

    Another great shot. Would love to see how you would interpret via photographs the Okachimachi market area.

      Cheers Marc. I have a few photos from that area, so I’ll have to post them soon.
