It was my eldest's birthday on Friday, and to celebrate we braved a three-hour trek today to the other side of Tokyo to visit a key shrine in the
cult of the kawaii -
Puroland - home to hundreds of singing and dancing 20-somethings dressed as Hello Kitty and her litter. Puroland is a massive building filling a city block devoted to the high priestess of cuteness and her minions, the Sugar Bunnies. Naturally, my girls felt right at home, but after tolerating the unadulterated sweetness of the place for five hours, I could barely contain the urge to do something adult (I settled for cracking open a beer). It was all too reminiscent of
Tokyo Disneyland. I can't bear to write much more, so without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, believers and non-believers, I give you Hello Kitty. Enjoy the show...
... this poor chap certainly did:

Oh Gawd! We couldn't actually bear to watch the video. Hope you had another couple of beers when you got home!
Oh, you should at least the first minute or so as one of the beasts comes awfully close to the girls and they are caught on camera... maybe just one minute anyway.
Had to agree with Dad and Margaret on that one too! Deserves a crate of beer!!!
