... and so we didn`t feel especially threatened. Things seemed to be bustling in preparation for the market Sunday or whatever else and so we went largely unnoticed.<br><br>Sean told me, as we entered, that I ought to write about the museum since it`s largely focused on the country`s military record. He told me I would probably be a bit more positive in writing it, but after seeing the museum I`m not sure how positive one can be about ...

... very common. Watching media on their clam shell phone is also common for Japanese on the go. Our guesthouse, House of Ikebukuro is about 10-15mins walk from West Exit of Ikebukuro station. It is neat and clean 2 storey guesthouse managed by a couple from Taiwan. The Japanese style rooms (sleep on floors) are tiny but sufficient (typical of Japan) and there are comfortable futon for warm. The air-conditioner in every room also acts as the room warmer in ...

... around Dundee, the gateway to the Oregon Pinot Noir region, were in order. Our first stop was the best choice and we wound up taking a couple of bottle of Rex Hill Pinot along for the rest of the ride to San Francisco. From there we headed down to Corvallis to have a look around since that is the hometown of some friends who live in Tokyo and it's also the home of Oregon State University. A pleasant town, but not a must do on the drive south. After that it was on to ...

... aiport is relatively easy to get around, its getting a train ticket out of those little machines that is the trouble... its all in Japanese... managed to get a ticket and head into Tokyo. Trains as always ere very busy and it took an hour or so to get here. I'm staying at Asakusa, said to be one of the more traditional areas in Tokyo. The hostel I'm in is pretty good, there is a real mix of nationalities. Yesterday I ...

... in Tokyo. It's shown live on TV, much like 4th of July extravaganzas in the United States. At Tama River, people brought fold-up chairs, snacks, cold drinks, friends and families. It was THE social event of the night, you can say for hundreds. Words like subarashii ("wonderful"), kawaii ("pretty/cute") became the topic du jour. Good fireworks, many were fantastic, actually, and a good time.

I made it through the first leg of my trip to Bangkok, a 14-hour flight from Dulles to Narita Int'l Airport (Tokyo). I had given up on getting onto the internet since all the computers seem to be coin operated, and I don't plan to get any Yen since I'm just passing through. I walked around, found my gate and then decided rather than sitting, which I've done plenty of so far, I'd walk around the airport and stretch my legs. As I was about to turn around ...

... table! And it continued to boil for a few minutes! I was able to watch the egg cook right in front of me. But the meal was very very tasty - and we followed up with a very tasty dessert! We all got green tea/sweet potato swirled ice cream! It doesn't sound like it would be good - but it absolutely is! It even looks pretty, green and purple. Next, we took a bus to Daibutsu, which is the second largest Buddha statue in Japan. The Daibutsu was very impressive, although there ...

... gone along with the clothes on my back but I dont get that impression over here. One thing I did notice in my now gormless state, considering how many people there are in this part of Japan, is how tidy it is and I couldn't find a single bin anywhere When I finally got into my room it was about 5pm and I fell asleep until now which is why Im up at 6am. Thats what jet lag does for you. Anyway thought Id just let you all know I made it and will upload the photos Ive taken.

... and watch/play in one of the booths, which have leather couches, internet connection, tv, etc. There is food available, microwaves, even a showerroom. I guess you could spend days here if you wanted to. Every computer terminal has a leather chair, footrest and a flat screen monitor. Pretty neat. It is going on noon, and once we finish up here at the cafe we will make our way back to Tokyo station. Our flight back to the US, to JFK airport (12:30 hours) leaves at 5pm.
