May Holiday
The first week of May is a national holiday in China, so we headed to Tokyo. Retail tourism may sound odd, but the stores in Japan are so much more than just containers to move products. The country has really embraced the idea of creating a shopping experience – a prime example being Herzog and de Meuron’s Prada epicenter in Aoyama. (HdM are currently working on the National Stadium project for the 2008 Beijing Olympics).
And big thanks to Melinda and JP for their guidance through many meals.
Keep up the great work on your blog. Best wishes WaltDe
