About Blog

    Instead of bombarding our friends & family with mounds of pictures every single day I've created this blog.

    You can access it anytime of day or night, & when you get bored reading my commentary, you can always look at the pictures & go about your day.

    You can expect at least a post a day most every day, including pictures, so refresh often! Also, be sure to sign the guestbook (located here) to let us know you've visited.

On the train ride to the Big Sight, Andrew sat in the "driver's" seat (as there is no driver on this monorail; completely computer generated).

Second stop, the Tokyo International Exhibition Centre, better known as the Tokyo Big Sight.



"The Tokyo International Exhibition Center, commonly referred to as "Tokyo Big Sight", is Japan's largest exhibition and convention center." As my guidebook says, "The Big Sights main hall looks like an Egyptian pyramid which fell to the earth upside-down -- and is certainly one of Tokyo's architectual wonders."
