My wife and I visited Japan in 2005. We went to the Aichi Expo

Saw lots of Morizo and Kiccoro. Saw many interesting exhibits, including ones about new high speed trains.
Also got to see Satsuki and Mei's house at the Expo...

Also got to visit Kyoto and Nara.

The deer at Nara are adorable, but also very very cheeky (read aggressive). Watch your back when you feed them wafers!
Saw the (possibly) largest wooden building at Todai-ji

And (possibly) the oldest wooden building at Horyu-ji

These are just two of many National Treasures of Japan
