Week 1 Day 0: Japan
I spent most of the day touring around Japan with Rach and Joe, again experiencing the sheer delight of sardine train carriages. We had plenty of eat (give everybody eat!) and plenty of drink. Here are some photographic highlights:
Above left: One of the guards at the Imperial Palace, Tokyo. He didn't wave back.
Left: My sister Rach, and I outside the Meiji Shrine.
Far below: They don't make it easy for us to enter the restaurants.
Below: Rach, her friend Asako, and I having a tofu dinner. I must say that even after an authentic Japanese Tofy dinner with all the punch and whistles, I could still live a contented life never having to taste the stuff again.
We went up to Tokyo Tower and I tried my hand at photography from above: Here is my taking a picture of Rach taking a picture of Mount Fuji (in the same vein as the escalator caperings.)
The day was good, despite a bit of ill weather.
QUOD: Toire was nande ni arimasuka?
That was I, after a few too many large Japanese beers. Translated it comes roughly to: why is the toilet there? Yep... I was doing so well until that point.

Hello Tim, glad to see you've "mastered" the environment. Perhaps a little more experience will be beneficial in getting around. Have you bought a raincoat, yet? Love, Grandma and Grandpa.
