... mountain views during the train ride.

After about a three hour ride, we arrive in Matsumoto. A fairly suburban area with the main road leading to the castle. It was here where I started noticing the decorative manhole covers. My guidebook mentioned about these elaborate sewer covers. What country does this?! I actually saw one near the Imperial Palace in Tokyo but this one was colorful (see photo below). So starts my collection ...

... la compacta puerta del Mausoleo de la familia "Tokugawa".

Continuamos la ruta pasando junto a la "Tokyo Tower" finalizada en 1958, siendo la torre de acero autosoportada m疽 alta del mundo con 333 metros, 13 m疽 que la Torre Eiffel de Paris aunque con un 40 % menos de peso.

... ones were burning hot. It was very relaxing and you could see a nice view of the valley and the monkeys hopping about around you. As we were right at the bottom of the valley we could see people really high above us but they couldnt see us very well, which was only a good thing. We then went back to the park and stayed for a while longer before getting the bus and train to Nagano, the main city of that ...

... The Japanese students asked us questions, and we asked the Japanese students questions. They were all anonymous, which was nice. The questions ranged from what is your favorite foods to do you think we speak english well, to "would you ever date a Japanese person?" It was great to see how curious our new friends had become and it was amazing to realize how much we don't really know about each others cultures. Although the Japanese are ...

Day two of the seminar included presentations by all the American students on a policy book and another book called Japan: Unbound by John Nathan.
