Hey! I just got back from Japan too! (July 1st) And I pretty much stuck within Tokyo, Yokohama, and Kyoto. And what I observed there (me being 19) was that there are SOOOO many beautiful Japanese women. I especially noticed this at the "major" train station in Kyoto (the one with about 160 ft of escalators mame) and man the girls were a dime a dozen! I do have to point out that prior to going to Japan I wasn't really into asian women (me not knowing many asian girls nor seeing many where I live). But I came out a different man!! I really want to learn Japanese and go back there in a couple years! I also visited some temples in Kyoto and Yokohama, alot of scenary to be seen hehe. Also went to this HUGE beautiful temple with a deer "zoo" within the grounds but i've heard the temple is one of the biggest wooden structures in the world?? The "malls" there are very different, its like this big underground structure/tunnel that connects blocks and blocks of stores above and below the ground. They seem to go on for miles, it was sooo cool. Akihabara was incredible, TONS of people, (I went there on a saturday) and around every other corner theres a 6 story arcade, I couldn't beleive how many shops were there and it was just overwhelming. Overall I had an amazing experience and I can't wait until I go back!! Hope some of you guys can relate to this stuff, it would be cool to actually know some people who shared the experiences I have.

I'm in Japan now too.

Got in yesterday, still jet lagged (it's 5am now:)). See some friends, some family, then got a bunch of meetings that I need to live through before I have to leave on the 27th. I feel sorry for you guys in Tokyo though, 39C is too hot. Come to Osaka where it's a lovely 37C, lol.

it's from my digital camera, is there a way to compress it/rotate the view?

and yes, you weren't missing much as far as her looks go. If someone is really good at a game, boy or girl, they probably aren't picture worthy. I have a video of another girl though, and I think you can see her face AND I think she's better looking. I'm not positive, I'll check it out later
