bowling chic

two friends from work had a joint birthday party together last night at the spanking new prince hotel towers bowling alley. i hadn't gone bowling in years, probably since my first year of college --as i kept on reminding everyone as an excuse for my poor performance.

one thing i discovered: bowling has become fashionable. okay okay, maybe not fashionable, but look at these cute red sneakers. one reason i've never been too keen on bowling was the ugly shoes. these would look okay even on the street, right? some might even mistake them for camper.

the bowling alley also had a bar with futuristic design and prices (very post-deflationary japan).
