MOONEYES Annual 2012 x

With Japans population oozing over 127,000,000 mark sometimes traffic becomes extremely bad, especially during Golden Week. This was our second day on our 2012 trip, 20 or so hours in, still no sleep. The Annual Mooneyes event was on in Odaiba, Tokyo Bay. Being only 20 or so kilometres from central Tokyo we thought it’d be a good idea to drive out seeming as it was such a nice Spring day. Just under 3 hours later we finally made it in Odaiba, without a park however. Traffic can be frustrating in Japan but not so much when you have gorgeous cars like this BMW to keep your mind at ease x

Post Hellaflush all the way south in Hyogo we thought we’d check out the Nostalgic Car Show in Odaiba on that Sunday. The show itself didn’t look very interesting so we walked to the conbini a hundred meters past the event to have a quick scan at the parking lot across the road. You might hear this phrase a fair amount when looking at Japanese related blogs and websites “the parking lot is always as interesting or even more-so than the event itself“.  Needless to say there were a bunch of mind-blowingly cool cars that we couldn’t get over. Spending a good few hours walking around and chatting to the owners, it was one of the best Sundays spent on the entire trip!

Once again this was the case. I still have a load of un-seen images that will be posted over the next few weeks. To catch up on previous posts from this day click here x
