My wife, Marilyn, and I had the great fortune to visit Tokyo, Japan for seven days on June 15, 1998. We had such a wonderful time that we wanted to share our adventure with friends and those of you who may be considering a trip to Japan's capital.

This web site contains more than 200 photographs, maps, images, sounds and personal observations. We believe you will not find another site on the web with more pictures of Tokyo!

Marilyn and I thank all of you who have sent us hundreds of wonderful emails from all over the world! Your kind messages have made sharing our adventure so much fun!
