A few pics of the travels for country business reviews over the past week. Started off with a couple of days in Taiwan that included a very nice dinner at the top of Taipei 101. Only one pic unfortunately and it was taken at speed from a moving cab but i'm sure you get idea - very tall and Asian looking. And the locals are very proud of the worlds tallest building being in heir town.
Taipei 101Next up was a week in Tokyo. Undoubtedly the best town that i've been too so far. Ultra traditional when you're doing business, then ridiculously crazy in a very cool way when you're not. Had quite a few outings - best summed up in the pics below:

Spent Sunday in Shibuya - one of the best hangouts for local trendsetters (thanks for the itinerary Jammo, made for a great day)
DogShibuyu has a statue of a dog as its centrepoint, apparently the dog went and sat outside the train station every day for 10 years, waiting for its dead master to come back from work - which he did not, being dead. Just goes to show that you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
I gave it a kick.
Obligatory temple shot - Meiji shrine
The Gazette
The latest sensation in Japanese glam metal - with their new album "Stacked Rubbish". I had a listen but it was a pile of crap. 
Then a walk through Harajuku park where I saw a lot of very weird stuff - an adult pillow fight
Japanese Elvis's pulling out some random dancing
Following which I needed to cool off once more with
