We just got back from a 17-day vacation in Japan, leaving our footprints in Chiba, Tokyo, Kyoto, Kanazawa, Kawaguchiko, and Nikko. That’s a lot of places to sample for a first time trip to Japan. We’ll have our diary and pictures posted on our website on the days ahead, and linked from here.

Updated: travel log has been posted with pictures. Please go to the main website and click on Japan 2008.
