Did I miss something? I do try to cover most my etiquette bases when traveling so any advice would be appreciated. As for the chopstick etiquette, are you referring to me holding the chopsticks up in that cheesy pose? Hehe, anyway thanks for your comments! Hello Kib,

It is truly an incredible experience to travel there. While your Rising Sun shirt looked sharp, I have to admit to being a little shocked at seeing you wearing it in front of the palace... Do you know what it means? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rising_Sun_Flag I am a subscriber to your blog for your thoughts on design, which are always valuable. I understand your good nature and realize you are a very positive, level-headed person. A little brushing up on chopstick etiquette would be good before your next trip, too ;) These things have meaning, and speak loudly to those around you when 'in country'. All the best on your travels and blog. Thanks! Glad you enjoyed Japan. It is truly an incredible experience to travel there.

What do you do when you eat a black egg by the Red Sea? You must have weighed the egg on your gray scale, no doubt. I also hear that black eggs don't have yolks, just 20% blacks instead :) Eating the black egg in black and white did not escape my humor-radar.

No way I've just got back from Japan a few days ago after a 3 month trip round Indonesia, Oz and Japan. Crazy, I didn't realise you were headed there. Hope you had a great time, I certainly did - it's such an insane country. What did you think of the manic crossing at Shibuya in Tokyo? I went to see a Kabuki play and a sumo tournament which was amazing. Do you reckon you'll go back some day? I guess it's not as far for you from Newcastle instead of from England for me. I stopped by your hometown actually, what a lovely place, like most places along the East Coast I guess - all beaches and good weather. I've missed your blog for 3 months so I'll have to catch up. Keep up with everything here and on your travels - as always you're doing a great job! Nathan Hey JC!
