10TH ANNUAL RUNNING OF THE BULLS
Now on it’s 10th year and safe to say there were MUCH fewer injuries than in Pampona! Plus, they’re were goats running along as well!
SEEING TOKYO FROM ABOVE
I absolutely LOVE to see a city from a birds eye view. So it was no question that I had to see the Tokyo Tower while visiting Tokyo. The Tower is 1,092 feet tall, which is just a couple hundred feet shorter than the Empire State Building! Tokyo Tower is a self-supporting, steel lattice tower [...]
