Little Laika
Laika is so attached - she always wants to be next to me. She's a rescue and I think she's happy to have a home where she's safe. If I'm sitting down, she'll be on my lap, preferably under a blanket.

Tokyo Tower (2)
In today's post I'll show you views from the Tokyo Tower.
The main observation deck is 150 meters (492 feet) high.
Since we only expect to visit once, we paid the extra fee to visit the 250-meter-high (820-foot) top deck.
The views were certainly spectacular. Tokyo seems to go on forever (it is the world's largest metropolitan area).
Of course I had to stand on the obligatory glass floor to take a photo looking down. Stop reading here if you're afraid of heights!

Peak Moods (15) - Icy
Here's a recent shot of Pikes Peak (although not the very top). While our weather was nice that day, the Peak looked really cold. All these Peak Moods shots are taken with a telephoto lens from my front porch.
It seems as if Skywatch Friday needs an account to link there, so I don't think I'll be joining that meme much longer.

Tokyo Tower (1)
The Tokyo Tower, or officially the Japan Radio Tower (日本電波塔), is one of Tokyo's most famous sights.
It was built in 1958 and is obviously inspired by the Eiffel Tower.
It's 1,092 feet (333 meters) high, and is built to withstand strong earthquakes and typhoons.
Next week I'll show you some views from the top.
