It’s 9:30PM in Tokyo. We head home tomorrow afternoon. It’s been a fine trip but we’ve been putting in some pretty long days, and hence I haven’t been left with much energy for blogging in the evenings.<\/p>\n

(I’ve got a number of other silly photos that I want to post here, but they’re stuck in my iPod currently because I don’t have iTunes on my traveling netbook.)

Okay, I must go to bed now. It’s gonna be a long day tomorrow.<\/p>\n
