I wish I had tean another picture if that kid.<BR/><BR/>We did see the Statue of Liberty from a distance but after you seen the real one it’s not as impressive. <BR/><BR/>Actually the café is in Setagaya, but if you go I’m sure my SO cousin will appreciate it. <BR/><BR/>Arkonbey – it’s OK to say it was cool, I thought so. We wanted to make the most out of our trip despite the fact were there for serious reasons. <BR/><BR/>The Soba shot is kinda saliva inducing isn’t it?<BR/><BR/>That shot looks really old it’s true. I actually zoomed in on Photoshop and upped the light so you could see it. I didn’t want to zoom in with the camera without a tripod, as it tends to get too blurry. <BR/><BR/>Moody – Actually the kids would probably like the Fuji TV tour a lot, and Odaiba offers fantastic views of downtown Tokyo. Make sure you ride the monorail as well.Swinebreadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02947060321484913676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6371426616015739116.post-75243478227811031742007-12-04T05:17:00.000-08:002007-12-04T05:17:00.000-08:00I don't think I've ever been to Jindaiji Temple. ...I don't think I've ever been to Jindaiji Temple.

I'll take a mix of houses with one like that over the cookie cutter burbs I grew up in.<BR/><BR/>Jindaiji Temple has an interesting history - was just reading on the link, never been there. Love the pick of the boy trying squirm out of his mother's grasp.<BR/><BR/>The Fuji TV building is very cool. Did you see the Statue of Liberty that is nearby? <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your day.
