Along the length of Tokyo’s relatively green rivers, baseball is still by far the most popular pastime, with soccer and cycling left to slug it out for second spot.
However, that’s not to say there aren’t a lot of other hobbies happening over the holidays, with ambling about with one’s arse hanging out waddling in at number forty-one, and archery firing in a little further behind.
This group in particular having all the right clobber and equipment.
Although perhaps it was due to their age,
or an over-eagernes to let go with their longbows,
but the group’s well rehearsed safety routine proved to be particularly important,
as in a fifteen minute flurry of arrows flying hither and thither, not a single one even troubled the target.
But that said, at least their bowing method was more on the mark.
Mostly.
