Mario Gottlieb pinball machine
A somewhat rare pinball game that could be found in an arcade in Odaiba for some time. I don't know if it's still there these days, but I've always loved the design! We had one in my hometown growing up for a super short period and I thought I'd never see it again... so was pleasantly surprised. My little brother got to try it here too.

Tokyo Tower with visiting brother
My little brother came to visit for a few weeks after graduating from High School, so we showed him around. Tokyo Tower is touristy but honestly always fun regardless.

Lunch with visiting brother
My little brother came to visit for a few weeks after graduating from High School, so we showed him around. Pretty sure this was during a lunch somewhere.
