The first stop was Tokyo, which was soley for trend shopping the market...can you say AWESOME. I'm getting paid to shop??? How appropriate! I'm putting in some pictures that highlight Tokyo and sites that we were able to see....
These next two pictures are the ends of one of the most famous streets in the Harajuku section of Tokyo. This is the section of Harajuku where most of the high schoolers hang out after school.

This is the view from the hotel we stayed at.

This was Saturday night walking around, everything is so bright in these sections, a lot like Times Square.

This is one of my favorites!! And before you ask, no he wasn't even asking for money. He was just hanging out with his dogs who are wearing coats and sunglasses.

This was the biggest surprise....public toilet restrooms are most likely this type of hole in the floor. Luckily most places offered both types! Unfortunately, some did not....

Unfortunately, in Korea I didn't get to take that many shots of the sites b/c we were in offices all day long every day, but here are a couple of pictures from the street when we went to dinner on our own the last night...

Fortunately, we met face to face some very nice people that we do business with on a daily business and they showed us the greatest time in Korea! As you may see below!!!!
It was a great trip overall and I'm very glad and fortunate that I was able to take this trip and experience new cultures on the work budget!
Go Bulldogs!
