Greetings, denizens!

Just came back from a two week trip to Japan. Tokyo-Sapporo-Noboribetsu-Osaka-Kyoto-Tokyo. Had an awesome time, met both old and new friends!

I saw Esther_M again! Very cool. ^_^

I'll try to post some pics soon.

Well, that explains why we haven't seen Esther_M for awhile. Drunk

Although it is awfully suspicious. You disappear and Ayumi Hamasaki announces her engagement to an American, , , , OMG

Bahahaha.

Nah, Esther has been busy with life in Tokyo! I was only able to see her once but we had a good time and eat some delicious tsukemen. Pictures forthcoming!

Hamasaki...well I'm not the lucky trophy husband, man.

That's a lot of country to see in just two weeks! Thank goodness for shinkansen and the JR Rail Pass, huh?

Indeed. This was my fourth visit to Japan but I didn't buy a JR Pass...I did travel on the shinkansen once to return to Tokyo from Kansai but I otherwise I traveled by air which I found to be cheaper and quicker!

No kidding? Can you PM me the details? If I can use it on my new website to help others, I would be very appreciative.

Pretty cool capture I took of reflections in Shiodome, in Higashi-ginza near the Conrad Hilton in Tokyo, my hotel for the first five days.

Massively cool holiday LED illuminations in Tokyo Midtown, in Roppongi. One of the very reasons I chose to travel in December was to witness all these awesome LED illuminations throughout Tokyo, as it was my first time.

Same reason I went when I did. Well, that and to avoid the summer heat and humidity.

Great picture. I should post some of mine.

Thanks. I refuse to go to Tokyo in the summer. I know it's miserable.

But the matsuri are beautiful. And fun! Just be careful if you get to help carry the shrine. Being taller than the others means a two-week bruise on the shoulder. Sweat

Kamanarimon (Thunder God Gate). Revisiting Sensoji Temple out of nostalgia, a place I went to on my very first trip to Japan, almost 10 years ago!
