Although feeling a bit awkward, not knowing what's what, is there some kind of business-class etiquette?
Tokyo was amazing - overall hospitality is superb, everyone is so friendly. And I'm sure they thought we were just clueless westerners! We had a few words worked out - by a few I mean probably around 4.
Highights:
Arazni Aronzo shop
My first ride on a ferris wheel (apparently the world's biggest, big web)
Shibuya crossing
Shopping in Ginza
Itoya - 9 floors of stationery!
Ordering our first Japanese meal and struggling to read Japanese!
Sky line of buildings and lights - great view from Roppongi Hills

Being able to navigate our way daily through the subway and train networks (well mostly Simon)
all the yummy, delicious food
Tempura!
Our first awkward experience of ordering at the sushi bar
The little streets, the shops and the people
ooh, maybe not so much a highlight - but pretty much ripping off my big toe nail - ouch! And my gosh, next time I need to pack much more comfortable shoes - we walked pretty much all day every day. Although what's comfortable to wear in hot hot weather?
Next stop - London. And then Paris in 3 weeks!
Can you tell I'm excited??
