Japan - May through June 2005

This is my 6th trip to Tokyo. It has become much more familiar. This was a very relaxed trip. I was used to the environment and wasn't really trying to rush to see sights and things. I got to climb the a huge staircase to the top of a hill where there was a beautiful shrine. And the best part of it was that this shrine was in the middle of the city, it was amazing! Other than that it was all business. I was mainly there this time to help with a large trade show and take care of some outstanding customer relations issues.
