I'm in Tokyo!!

I am in Tokyo ... and about to go and start exploring. Yesterday evening's events included Japanese fast food in the form of beef and rice for about 1 pound 60, Japanese beer in a club that resembled a students' union, and an hour of karaoke ... where Mac demonstrated the fastest talking (rap) I've ever heard (you can speed the tracks up because you pay by the hour) and a song in Japanese ; )

Was supposed to be meeting Mac's friend Miki for lunch today, but apparently she can't make it, so I guess I'm off to visit towers and shrines and all things Tokyo ... shame I can't speak the lingo!!
