Tokyo

I arrived early in Tokyo hold business meetings with Arabian Oil Ltd before joining the Canadian Delegation that was stopping here on their way to Hong Kong and China.

My Arabian Oil friends arranged for me to stay in this traditional ryokan so I could taste the Japanese life style. It was an exquisite experience.

My friend Wachan of Arabian Oil guided me on a visit to the famous Meiji-jingu Shrine. This is the main gate leading to the shrine hidden in a large wooded park.

The Canadian Delegation held mission briefings here at the Imperial Hotel. I left my Japanese friends and joined them when they arrived. The heavy black border indicates that this is not one of my photos. I scanned it from a postcard.
