land of the rising sun

finally, the My First Trip To Japan Post-Infancy post.

first off, that place is nuts. especially tokyo. take every city you've ever been to, amplify them slightly, cram them all together in about a greater-LA-sized area and get rid of 99% of the homeless people: tokyo.



we got to stay with our homeboy joji at his house out in chiba city. he was also kind enough to drive us all over tokyo and nearby environs for the whole trip, joji for president.

head on over to my incredible flickr set to enjoy some shots and notes from the trip. the funny part is the first day or two were so overwhelming, we kind of forgot to take pictures... check out george's flickr for alternate views of the experience as well.

tokyo is amazing and i can't wait to go back, if you have a job opening in tokyo, hire me! nihongo wo benkyō suru totemo hayaku!
