I didn't get to do a lot of sightseeing, but I was lucky enough to have a chance to visit the King's palace and temple. I also stayed in a really nice hotel, The Conrad. One of these days, I'd like to go back when I have more time.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCm6VeLC0I/AAAAAAAAACk/uWNpqu_DWBc/s1600-h/71840011.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5008186306762312514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCm6VeLC0I/AAAAAAAAACk/uWNpqu_DWBc/s400/71840011.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCmd1eLCzI/AAAAAAAAACc/wJJa_L-9NvI/s1600-h/71840005.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5008185817136040754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCmd1eLCzI/AAAAAAAAACc/wJJa_L-9NvI/s400/71840005.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCmEVeLCyI/AAAAAAAAACU/xLCl3eYsfXQ/s1600-h/71840004.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5008185379049376546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCmEVeLCyI/AAAAAAAAACU/xLCl3eYsfXQ/s400/71840004.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYClgVeLCxI/AAAAAAAAACM/xrWizsf48Dk/s1600-h/71820028.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5008184760574085906" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYClgVeLCxI/AAAAAAAAACM/xrWizsf48Dk/s400/71820028.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCkDVeLCwI/AAAAAAAAACE/TXtxAIv1Xho/s1600-h/71820025.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5008183162846251778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCkDVeLCwI/AAAAAAAAACE/TXtxAIv1Xho/s400/71820025.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5008186714784205650" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ptLKHWcwbek/RYCnSFeLC1I/AAAAAAAAACs/80wSGvNAeuo/s400/71840010.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8982507025418974184-3908614716841817174?l=sulawesigirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>sulanoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8982507025418974184.post-51233330916707231722006-12-13T16:15:00.000-08:002008-12-10T07:42:43.299-08:00Recently, I was in Tokyo on a business trip.
