Four Days In Tokyo

My time in Tokyo was spent sight-seeing, visiting hospitals, partying with the students from Keio and Showa University, and much more. Here are my fours days in pictures. 
 
Keio University Pharmacy Students, Tokyo Sky Tree Tower and Zojoji Temple
 


The Keio Students

Statue at Zojoji Temple


This is the main temple of Jodo shu and the central nembutsu seminary for priests and novices.

Downtown Tokyo and NTT Medical Center
 



Map in Tokyo Station

 
Here is a close up... tons of Japanese characters
 
I wonder if they'll get picked? It would be a great place to have the Olympics.



This is the base of the building

 

Look how high it goes. The buildings in Tokyo just went up and up.

Giving a Lecture on Pharmacy Education in America
 
Loved the Showa University Ladies.... This is the school I'd be at!
 
Trying to re-enact that power jump picture.

 
I feel blessed every single day I am here. This has been a life altering journey. Two more weeks to go.
