Good Morning Tokyo!
Early morning and I am walking past the International Forum building in Yurakucho, better safe than sorry. Train schedules are still a little wobbly from the power cuts but everything in central Tokyo is basically back to normal. I see these two men, guards, raising the flags of Japan (the Hinomaru) and the flag of Tokyo. Luckily, I had my camera to capture this moment of normality, or as I call it, “Boring Tokyo”.

This is a very special blog.
Very intelligent and sensitive on a very delicate situation.
Thank you for the kind comment Alec, I’m so happy to think so. I’ll keep doing my best!
*Sorry for the late reply, I’ve been swamped with work and other communications, so much that I haven’t had time to reply to most comments on the blog. I’ll work harder from now on! I read all your comments as they came in and they all meant a lot to me. I wish I had had more time to reply to all of them, personally and in real time.
Hi,
1.5 years ago my wife and I were on our honeymoon in Japan and loved it so much.
“Some” pictures can be found here – http://www.flickr.com/photos/ofiraz/collections/72157622721062918/.
Since then I’ve started following your blog which brings up all the good memories as well as new exciting facts and magnificent pictures of Japan.
Could you share in a post the current feeling regarding the radiation threat?
I hope things will be solved in the best way there can be ASAP.
I love your blog
Arigato,
Ofir.
Dear Ofir, thank you for sharing your photos with us! You have been to quite a few places that I still haven’t visited here in Japan! I’ll address the radiation threat soon, keep following this blog for a view of Japan that you won’t find in regular media.

Be well Tokyobling! Been following your photos and writing with great interest at this sad time.
Thank you Steve! I’m very happy to have your support, in good times and in bad times!
