So I watch F1 and I watch sumo. I have been going to Japan for work for years and I just love sumo, and there is a basho (tournament) on now for two weeks. Well after a four year absence the royals showed up today in their fleet of Toyotas. Check out the bodyguard leading them in. I wonder what that guy can do to you. Well a rare look at the royal cars showing up. If anyone wants to know anything about sumo just ask, its actually related to Judo. I recommend Jason's channel on youtube to check it out, hes an American living there and he has HD.

I love how properly things are handled in Japan. (You won't find Redneks in pajamas wandering down for a free breakfast in hotels.)

I've only been there twice but the politeness (?) won me over and would love to go back.

Oh they are so polite, and honest. Coming back to the city in the USA is always a shock. I'm going back in May, I go once or twice a year.

Empress Michiko is such an elegant lady, total class.

I just made this, this is Harumafuji (Mongolian Yokozuna) taking out Kaisei (lower ranked Brazilian) with practically one hand. I would love to have seen the faces on the Emperor and Empress when this happened, NHK won't show that I'm sure. It was really cool to see them come though, wish I was there. I'm going to the tournament in May.

I was lucky enough to be there two years ago and I took in a morning of the tournament. Had some great soup/stew/??? In the basement. Amazing experience.
