Today, after 3 amazing months, we leave Japan. Visiting Japan must be on everyone's list of things to do before you die. Here are our DOs and DON'Ts for this beautiful country: 1. When spotting a geisha in Kyoto, you may get a feeling of being star struck but DON'T stick your head through the tea house to get a look because you may get yelled at; 2. DON'T think you are a singing superstar even after 12 hours of karaoke; 3. Just because some of the Japanese girls in Tokyo can get away with it, DON'T wear hot pants, platform high heels and have big blonde dyed hair; 4. DON'T accept lifts from Japan's worst driver; 5. DO blow a month's travel budget in your first three nights at a 5-star Ginza hotel; 6. DO have a sashimi breakfast at the Tsukiji fish market after all night partying in Tokyo; 7. DO spend a night in a Manga Cafe and have all you can eat ice cream and chocolate milk; 8. DO try the lamb chops at Gonpachi restaurant; 9. DO go on stage at a rock concert in Roppongi, rip your shirt off and have a sore neck for three days from head-banging; 10. DO sleep on a bench in Yoyogi Park even though you may appear homeless after a few consecutive days. We love Japan.

You've sold me. I'm ready to head to Japan and eat and drink my way through it.
Glad to hear everything is going well - keep safe and keep having fun.

Hi Dean and Lina
It's Nana (& boyfriend Dean West Tiger's fan) met at Hiroshima J Hoppers informally when I was hung over and formally when I rudely uplugged your charger (but it was green!!!!).
Anyways I won't ask how you are it's clear you both are FABULOUS!!
I agree Japan is whatever people had said it is but more!!
I dropped my camera 40D (boo hoo) only the UV filter smashed, camera still okay but can't unsrew the filter off. Have to get it fixed. My heart broke!
Anyways, keep up the great photographs and fantastic stories. Wish I was doing the same.
HAVE A GREAT TIME IN VEGAS!! WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!!
