愛宕神社１

霊南坂教会でのチャペルコンサートを堪能した後、
ホテルオークラの脇を神谷町駅のほうへ下ります。
この付近は城山ヒルズと呼ばれる地区で、テレビ東京も
ここにあります。


まずは桜田通りをわたって新橋方向に進み、
都心ではめずらしいトンネル(愛宕隋道)を通り抜けます。
この上には某国営放送の放送博物館があります。


トンネルを出て愛宕下通りを左折、その先左手が愛宕神社です。


参道の石段は「出世の石段」、江戸時代に三代将軍家光公の前で
四国丸亀藩の家臣、曲垣平九郎(まがきへいくろう)が
馬で一気に石段を駆け上がり、境内に咲き誇る梅の花を
手折って再び駆け下り、家光公に献上したことによって、
「日本一の馬術の名人」として有名になったことに因むそうです。


下から見上げると本当に急な石段です。ですが後世、実際に馬で
登り下りすることに成功した人が数人いるそうです。
石段手前の狛犬が｢おまえも出世したいのか？｣と言いたげです。




８６段の石段を登りきり、振り返ります。ちょっと怖いくらい。
昔は東京湾まで見渡せたそうですが、今はちょっと無理なようです。


鳥居脇にはアレがありました。


特に出世は望んでいないのですが、きちんとお参りさせていただきました。


続きます。

「出世の階段」上りましたが、
成就はまだまだ、まだまだ先のようです。

結構急な階段ですよね。
サラリーマンに混じってスポーツ選手(?)らしき人が
１段飛ばしで駆け上がっていました。
こんなことはできそうにないなぁ。

ここは良くお参りします。階段の昇り降りも健康のバロメーターになります。

いつかは、京都の愛宕神社に登りたいと思います＾＾

mwainfoさん
毎日上り下りすると結構な運動になりそうですね。
でも何度数えても85段のような気が...。

島猫さん
愛宕神社、あちこちにありますね。
火の神様だけに、火遊びにはご注意を！

Nike Air Griffey Max II “Fresh Water”

Quick release reminder, and a big recommendation that you pick up these shoes. The Nike Air Griffey Max II “Fresh Water” release date is set for tomorrow, April 23rd at retailers nationwide, and this is just a perfect summer shoe.

It combines a dope silhouette, legendary inspiration (who doesn’t like Ken Griffey, Jr?), beautiful materials, and an eye-catching secondary color in the form of “fresh water,” a great shade of blue.

Check out more looks and information here, and hit your local Nike Sportswear retailer tomorrow (or nikestore.com at midnight EDT tonight) to grab a pair. (Retail $140.) Photo via

Nike Air Max 360 Trainer 2 Release Date

The Nike Air Max 360 Trainer 2 release date is official, set for November 27 in Game Royal/Game Royal-Black-White.

Draped in purple throughout the leather-and-mesh upper, with only the occasional teal accent and a black midsole, the “Game Royal” represents the first colorway on a new, tech-updated edition of the Air Trainer 2.

And buy “tech-updated,” basically I just mean the classic cross trainer’s upper set atop a new 360 Max Air unit. Can’t get more cushioned than that.

Likely the first of several new colorways of the updated trainer, the “Game Royal” will retail for

Nike Air Max JR Dark Grey/White-Total Orange

Who would have thought that retiring from baseball would so significantly jumpstart Ken Griffey, Jr’s relationship with Nike? Not me, but that seems to be what’s happened as we’ve seen a few retro releases from the Air Griffey Max line, Ken starring in a new TV spot and now a brand new silhouette (although it’s based on his past shoes).

The Nike Air Max JR takes clear inspiration from the Air Griffey Max 1, by way of its upper, but adds in new innovations like the lightweight, breathable mesh on the upper and a 360 Max Air unit.

Check out a few more looks under the cut of the Nike Air Max JR—release date expected for this summer. Photos via

New Fun Herve Leger Celebrity Sightings

I wish I could capture all the Herve Leger spottings, but it's just impossible. For instance, my recent favorite is when Emily VanCamp wore Herve Leger in the beginning of Season 2 Episode 8 of Revenge, but there are no photos of it online.

She looked STUNNING in that black essential! Oh well, here are some recent Herve Leger celeb pictures that did make it online. Enjoy!

And, we're going to end it with one of my favorites. Love the bright cheery color, and the simple sexy style! Plus, the picture is just fun!

Nike Air Griffey Max 1 Platinum

At this rate, Ken Griffey Jr may get more new colorways of his signature shoe and PE’s of other shoes post-retirement than he did during his career.

For the second time in as many days I’m sharing a new Griffey shoe, this time the Nike Air Griffey Max 1 “Platinum,” and again it is really nice. With an almost Foamposite look going for it, the shoe sports a metallic silver upper with black nubuck surrounding the laces and through the tongue and a black sole unit.

The colorway doesn’t exactly match up with any of Griffey’s old uniforms but hey, he’s retired: it doesn’t have to. The Nike Air Griffey Max I Platinum is a quickstrike release and has already begun hitting stores in some areas. Check out several more looks under the cut. Via

Wmns Nike Air Max 90 Lunar C3.0

Following up Monday’s look at the Nike Air Max 90 Lunar C3.0, the latest AM90 revisitation, today we get a look at the women’s pairs, which may just be even more impressive.

Sporting the same Hyperfuse construction and Lunarlon-infusion as the men’s edition — and doing so without compromising the immediately-recognizable aesthetics of the AM90 — the women’s colorways previewed today embrace neon and fluorescent tones, a perfect fit on the futuristic Fuse-and-mesh look.

Still no word on an exact release date, but it sounds like it’ll be in early 2014 for

Ken Griffey, Jr Retires From Baseball

ESPN is reporting that Mariners manager Don Wakamatsu has confirmed the Ken Griffey, Jr retirement rumored at earlier in the day.

Griffey is, in addition to being a legend on the baseball diamond, a big part of Nike’s history as his shoes, especially the Air Griffey Max 1, achieved some incredible mainstream popularity for a baseball/cross-trainer. Best of luck going forward to one of the all-time greats.

It’s unclear what his role with the Mariners will be in the future, but he is expected to stay with the team in some capacity from

For Sale-Blue Pasha Herve Leger Dress - $375

Stunning vibrant color! This electric blue and sexy front zip design will leave quite an impression even after you've gone. Front zip makes getting on that Herve that much easier, plus very effective at disguising any tummy issues.

It's got an angled bodice along with a front zip which means it is super flattering for the waist line. This dress hits at mid thigh for most.

There is a spot on the front as pictured above. The spot does not appear to be noticeable when the dress is worn (as seen above), but since it's there, the seller has set the minimum at $375 with shipping at $50 for everyone.
