i just came back from a tokyo trip. as i had a plenty of time there, i
decided to visit small ceramic collections other than the National Art
Museum, that i visited also this time again. i got a list of museums through
e-yakimono web page, http://www.e-yakimono.net/html/tokyo-museums.html
the list was generally very useful. i enjoyed the National Museum of Modern
Art and Craft, Toguri Museum, as well as Hatakeyama Collection and Japan
Folk Art Museum. I didn't visit Goto Museum and Nezu Institute of Art this
time.

and as always, i highly recommend visit to the National Art Museum at Ueno
Park, Tsukiji Fish market, and Mitsukoshi department store at Nihonbashi
(and any other department stores) if any of you are planning to go to Tokyo
to see the W-cup there.

i placed my short trip report in my web page for a liittle more information
about these museums.
(sorry, no pictures.)
