Now I’m ready to spread the hoop love around Sydney!</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240105289http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240105289Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:51:32 +1100<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxsd1dhXA1qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Kazusa-Ichinomiya beach</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240102176http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240102176Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:46:13 +1100<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxsbloA441qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Rainbow Micheal shows off his colours</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240101660http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240101660Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:45:20 +1100<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxsaf0bZR1qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Psi-hoop mandala</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240101235http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240101235Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:44:38 +1100<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxs9eYYeR1qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Little Buddha - it was just me and him in the dark</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240100842http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240100842Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:44:01 +1100<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxs7t9R571qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Mmm, Okonomiyaki</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240100374http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240100374Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:43:02 +1100<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxs4n0csU1qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The famous tori gate at sunset, Miyajima Island</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240099270http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240099270Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:41:11 +1100<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxs2sbBAJ1qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Yummy sushi lunch</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240098613http://www.steveandglo.com/post/240098613Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:40:01 +1100<p>Here are a few more photos from the Japan leg of our trip. After spending a week in Tokyo with Peter, we hopped on the shinkansen bullet trains to explore the country.</p> <p>The shrines around Nara were peaceful and beautiful, and we stayed in a couple of really cute little ryokans. We also amused ourselves by stalking geishas through the back streets of Kyoto.</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/201200367http://www.steveandglo.com/post/201200367Thu, 01 Oct 2009 07:28:00 +1000<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kpq6hj9Lwv1qz4l7lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><b>Tsukiji fish market</b></p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183982034http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183982034Thu, 10 Sep 2009 08:29:43 +1000<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kpp3h4z1Al1qz4l7lo1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><b>Tokyo crowds</b></p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183527747http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183527747Wed, 09 Sep 2009 18:27:00 +1000<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kpp3gyZFap1qz4l7lo1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><b>Geisha spotting in Kyoto</b></p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183527710http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183527710Wed, 09 Sep 2009 18:27:00 +1000<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kpp3h7eug31qz4l7lo1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><b>Good enough to eat: </b> We were mesmerised by the plastic food on display outside the restaurants, which is so good it’s almost better than the real thing</p>http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183527767http://www.steveandglo.com/post/183527767Wed, 09 Sep 2009 18:27:00 +1000<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kpp3gbtD5m1qz4l7lo1_r1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><b>Unhappy fish: </b>We went to the Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo early one morning.
