The road not taken

I haven't been to Shibuya for quite a while- actually, I think it was my first time ever since I got back to Japan! I used to go to Shibuya almost every weekend when I was in high school, so I have very fond memories of this place. But since I live closer to Shinjuku, I don't have much of a reason to go to Shibuya.   
I remember I used to love going to the Starbucks right in front of the crossing and sitting on the 2nd floor window seats that looked over the crossing. I remember seeing one foreign couple wearing a tux & a white wedding dress and crossing the major intersection, stopping at the middle for a second to share a sweet little kiss. 
There was another time when a guy wearing a very tight white full body spandex (for advertising...I think) got stuck in the middle of the intersection when the traffic lights turned green and cars started speeding around him.  
I love this crazy, spontaneous, fun side of Shibuya and hope to go back very soon to take more pictures! (It was a very gloomy, cloudy day so I didn't take that many pictures)
