The city of Tokyo was pretty, clean and it felt like we were in a movie of the future. People also could help us a little since some of them spoke English.

Life is made of special moments, here are some of mine...

Our vacation to Asia- JAPAN
Japan was great! People there are so polite and they treat you with so much respect that makes you uncomfortable...I had back pains because of all of the bowing I did. :0)

David kept telling me that even though I stared at the TV in our hotel room I would not understand anything anyway! :0)
Our view from the hotel room, can you see the Tokyo Tower and the Rainbow Bridge?
I totally loved their toilet seat, it had tons of buttons and it was heated! :0)
View from the middle of the Tokyo Tower, this tower is taller than the Eiffel Tower.
In the Tokyo Tower
They have these glasses areas that you can see...pretty scary!
The Tokyo Tower!
The gas comes from the top...
At their train stations
It felt like there were too many people everywhere and all the time!
Shinjuku area, it is like Time Square in NY. Very busy and fun!
Bike anyone?
The Electric Street in Shinjuku
Octopus balls...snack?!
Nothing looked very good so we went to their Mac Donalds and had a mc pork...nasty! :0)
Their "Statue of Liberty" right outside of our Hotel
Statue of Kusunoki Masashige a Japanese Samurai Warrior and national hero

I guess you can pray/meditate anywhere and anytime!
Tokyo Imperial Palace



David's time to meditate...Yep he is still very funny!
I could not use this toilet in a million years...
In our Hotel, the Nikko Hotel...it was awesome!
I was spending some Yen at Asakusa
Pagoda at Asakusa
Aren't they cute?
Making my wish...
Senso-Ji gardens
Pagoda at Asakusa

They do wear kimonos all the time!
These girls wanted pictures with us
I kept staring at it but I didn't know what it was...snacks were hard to find!
David loved these chocolate pastries, the guy makes them right there...yummy!
Buying train rides were always a adventure! Where we were going? Who knows? :0)
Tokyo Tower


I had miuso soup and grilled salmon for breakfast! Yummy! :0)
I met the Brazilian Volleyball National Team in the Tokyo Airport...I didn't even know Brazilians could be that tall! :0)

I loved their monorails, you feel like you are in the future for sure! Pretty cool!

Pretty cool ride huh?

We lived in Okinawa four years but I never got to China or Korea. The pictures in China after the sun came out? Gorgeous. So where to next?
