In anticipation of your own brilliant photos, I have taken the liberty of looking up Shinjuku Gyoen using a popular internet search engine. It does indeed look a fabulous place - especially in the frantic urban setting of 21st century Tokyo
That's an excellent photo - yes this is where we were the day before yesterday. My photos don't look like that though - 'cos the weather was a little dull. We were 'promised' a typhoon - but that blew itself out before it hit Tokyo - so we only caught the tail-end of it...
Apparently, there was a minor earthquake this morning (John said that it was at 07:18) but I missed it - too busy sleeping.
All of yesterday was spent sightseeing - and seeing as how I don't have my guide book with me it's a little difficult for me to be any more specific. Lots of photos...
Today is the first of the two shows... I'll try to post again to let you know how it all went. We're off to the venue in about two hours time - and we're set to do a full 'run through' before the gig proper. Until then...
