Your target: Velfarre nightclub, Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan.
Your mission: Infiltrate. Consume beverages. Take no prisoners. Dance.
Your codeword: Glitterball, 2006.

It only happens once a year!

It's Metropolis' annual Glitterball Halloween party.
Tokyo's international community descends upon Roppongi's cavernous Velfarre for dancing, free food and drinks, mingling with the Glitterati, charity (portion of ticket sales benefit kid's charities) and my favorite part, dressing up to the nines. Dress up! Loved it as a kid, love it as an adult.
Miss Ai went hardcore military as a member of the ultra-elite special operations unit, Delta Force. Alias: Alpha 6.
Me: channeling Audrey Hepburn from Breakfast at Tiffany's. That's a knitting needle painted black with a cigarette impaled on the end.

Other costume highlights: zombie coed, human chandelier, many Jack Sparrows/pirates, Austin Powers, members of the clergy, power rangers, pimps, greek gods, ghouls, goblins and gypsys. Take a look.
