Japan at critical tipping point
Japanese trains run to the minute, and the country's businesses pride themselves on energy-efficiency. The Japanese boast of their eco-services for eco-products in eco-cities. Yet they rely primarily on imported fossil fuel and nuclear power, live in energy-wasteful homes, and import 60 percent of their food. That may be changing in the wake of the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Maybe.

Okitsuru: An island in the middle of Yokohama
At a 2009 concert, Seijin Noborikawa, the grand-daddy of Okinawan folk music, told the audience about where he felt most at home when he visited mainland Japan. He described a neighborhood where passersby chatted in uchinaaguchi language, where shops served pig-trotter noodles and island songs seeped like honey from tiny backstreet bars. Noborikawa was talking about Yokohama's Tsurumi Ward, and in particular an area between the river and the docks that, due to its close ties to Japan's southernmost islands, has led it to be christened Okitsuru — a synthesis of "Okinawa" and "Tsurumi."

Sankeien: Great love in a garden almost grows
Miho leans out over the Lotus Pond to get a good photo of one of the bright-red flowers when the camera slips out of her hand. Standing next to her, I instinctively lean forward, stretch out my hand (my reflexes, even if I say so myself, are very good) and pluck the camera out of the air with ease.

A short trip to 'paradise' at Yokohama's Hakkeijima
Yokohama's close proximity to Tokyo — less than half an hour by express train on the various JR, Tokyu or Keihin Kyuko lines — makes it exceptionally easy to get to, and I'm always looking for an excuse to visit this friendly and cosmopolitan town.

Minato Mirai: Loading bay to pleasure haven
Originally home to a huge shipbuilding dock, Yokohama's Minato Mirai 21 area is today a great attraction for day and nighttime visitors alike. The "21" of Minato Mirai's name stands for the 21st century, but plans to redevelop the coastal area were underway by 1965, just as Japan's economy started soaring the year after the Tokyo Olympic Games. The area is studded with impressive structures, including the dramatic Yokohama Landmark Tower, just east of Yokohama Station, and the Red Brick Warehouse in the Shinko area.
