On this day in the year 410 the Goths sacked Rome
i think about such things as i go through some kind of day now some days after returning from Japan .
I had read some text of Nicholas Roerich from when he traveled across remote Central Asia in 1926 and that's been bubbling in my mind
sifting what will be the upcoming trip to out there Western Tibet , W China
Images of the caves , the sand covered ruins , interview with a man picking through the ruins on the NHK program we saw last week

Thinking sometimes about the earthquake we felt in Ohashi , now a week ago

Reading on the Times about the unrest in China and the CCParty's decision to enforce their will by raising new teams to deal with any unrest or 'terrorism' .
'172,000 complaints and nothing fixed' or to that effect

It was very good to check back in to Tokyo , see my friends , see family and make new friends and new business things fluid , loose , taking easy days of not doing so much - least week we did it to the top by the time we reached Odaiba
