    Japan is class I would go back tomorrow morning if I had the money for the flight tis an amazing place.



    This is me and the brother in front of the Great Buddha of Kamakura back in 2002 during the Japan/South Korea world cup

    Also you have to go to Ginza for the nice shops an Akihabara aka Electric Town just to say you were there and see the lights and cool electronics etc.

    Oh almost forgot check out Asakusa and Ueno nice cultural places shrines and the like and there in the middle of the city which is cool

    The nice thing is these are all in Tokyo except the Buddha which is in Kamakura obviously but Tokyo is prob where your going to fly into anyway.





    Hey by the way make sure and drink one of those Litre cans of Asahi Super Dry for me when your down to your last few shillings in Roppongi late at night tis handy to have a big can to drink

    - Koya-san
    Yes, oh, yes. It is the seat of the Shingon school of Buddhism and is the home to a lot of tombs and stuff. It's a beautiful place.
