CHILLIN OUT AFTER A LOT OF WALKING. WENT TO SENSO TEMPLE, ONE OF THE BUSIEST IN TOKYO. HUGE MARKET AREA BESIDE WHICH HAD A CRAZY SALE- ALL BAGS FOR 50 DOLLARS. BAG SLUT FINALLY GOT HIMSELF A BRIEFCASE. AW YEAH.
ALSO WENT TO THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM. AMAZING COLLECTION OF JAPANESE HISTORICAL ARTIFACTS, WELL OGANIZED. HAD FUN SCOLDING ALL THE IDIOTS WHO USED THEIR FLASHES WHEN TAKING PIBTURES OF EXHIBITS.

IT DOES WORK! HAD FUN LOOKING AROUND GINZA, ESPECIALLY THE APPLE STORE. GEEK I AM, OH YES.
ALSO WENT TO YASUKUNI SHRINE. JAPANESE HISTORICAL REVISIONISM AT ITS FINEST AT THE ATTACHED MUSEUM. JAPAN WAS RELUCTANTLY FORCED TO GO TO WAR AGAINST THE U.S., APPARENTLY. THE THINGS YOU LEARN!

TESTING UPDATE VIA PHONE. COULD SOMEONE LET ME KNOW IT WORKED?
AWAKE ON FIRST DAY. FLIGHT SHORT BUT OVERALL TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET TO OUR DIGS - AM STAYING W FRIEND OF GABI'S. FIRST SITE GETTING OFF LOCAL TRAIN WAS A POOL OF BLOOD. MYSTERIOUS!
PONDERING BREAKFAST AT DENNY'S, OF ALL PLACES.
