Kim – I’m glad you liked the pictures. There are definitely a lot of serene spots in and around Tokyo but I wasn’t kidding when I said it was an oasis – just outside the gates of the shrine is the very hectic and hip Harajuku area.

Helen – It’s a small world and I am so happy to have been able to bring back some good memories for you! I hope you can get back to Tokyo soon.

I was in Tokyo the end of March beginning of April, this year, 2008.

I was at the Meiji Jingu Shrine the day the wedding pictures were being taken of the couple you have shown above. I was able to get a picture from the side. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened your website and there were pictures I could relate to.

I hope to return to Japan again. Being there for the Cherry Blossoms, and meeting such wonderful people, and beautiful country, calls me back.
Thank you.
Helen
