Japan and Bangkok in Pictures

This is the Honda ASIMO robot that I saw. It is the robot I mentioned the moves almost human like. It's truly amazing. Although I was not at the Museum at the right time to see it in action I did see video images. The next photo is me playing with the heat vision camera!

The third image is the view from the 51st floor of the Sumotomo building (I think that's the correct name) in Tokyo. The fourth is Mount Fuji from the aeroplane as I left Japan.

The final pictures are a selection from Bangkok. Before anyone asks, yes, I have been in a Tuk Tuk, no it wasn't as crazy as the VISA ad and no they don't actually take VISA. However, my experience of Bangkok traffic leads me to believe that there is only one road rule. Whoever gets there first has right of way........it's crazy!

Remember in all that I write about here I have tons more photos but are just uploading a few of the better ones. When I next see you I'll be able to abuse you with the millions of others I have taken. Aren't you glad now that I'm on in the other hemisphere? =P

  • Did you really squeeze into that tuk tuk? It looks far too small.

    Keep the news coming!

  • Oh....did you manage to fit in Ginza district or Shinjuku while you were in Tokyo?

    Man! Your schedule is hectic!
