Dale-chan waiting for kids at Yamashita Park to throw her Frisbee to her. Tried to get shot of catching the Frisbee, but can’t let go of leash in public parks. She nearly dragged me across the grass just to get that Frisbee!

A decorative fence post cap near Osanbshi Pier using design I have never seen before. Some of the older, upscale properties with fences in this area of Yokohama (especially on the bluff) tend use flat pyramids, Windsor spires, fleur-de-lis motifs, quad spears, or spear ends for the post caps.
