Two Sad Pictures of Tokyo

i feel like i have to post SOME pictures of tokyo because it is the worlds coolest city. but i was so damn busy, all i have that is somewhat decent, are the following two shots, which are LAME. the first is a shot of the imperial palace that i took from one of the many conference rooms i visited and the following is the lunch hour.

the gossip about the royal family in japan is that they are desperate for a male heir. the queen who is quite bright and was a career woman is now going crazy because they dont have a son. she is older...i dont remember how old but go google it yourself, dammit, be resourceful!

and then lunch hour in asia is a unique experience. they are all like dock workers. at 1230 on the nose, everybody punches out and rushes to lunch for either an hour or an hour and a half. this lunch was taken in the ground floor of some big office tower. all these carts are set up selling fun japanese cuisine.






























other than that, lets see..........a mate from the ny office is here in hk for two weeks which is really nice. a bit of home which is defo welcome during this economic downturn (i just paid my hk taxes).

thats all for now, hopefully i will have some better news soon!
