slow the pace down

today we walked around the imperial gardens which are just stunning. beauty everywhere. a bit touristy, but quiet and peaceful, which was a welcome change from the pace we've been going at. not one person yelling at you to buy something. phew... also we went to an exhibition by a japanese artist called leonard foujita, at the national museum of modern art. it was so ace. just kicking back with some duty free at the moment, thinking of how lucky i am to be here. i'll pour another glass and think of you all. enjoy the photos. kampai!


look. there is a swan. oh yes.


i wasn't welcome in the royal family. it didn't make me sad.


beautiful dew on the trees.


massive gardens in the middle of tokyo. really beautiful.
