Great photos! It looks like you are enjoying it as much as I did last year. It's a really incredible tourist destination, isn't it? Did you stay at the E&O? It has gorgeous, old, colonial rooms. I loved it.

Brian, I was too cheap to stay at the E&O, but probably should have since the Malaysia Hotel was really run down and didn't have properly functioning wifi. Believe it or not I only stayed a day and a half, but it was the highlight of the trip so far. I'm currently back in Singapore (catching up on my blogging/photo uploads) and coming back to Tokyo tomorrow.
