In Tokyo and willing to take some pictures?

I'm putting together a present for my second Mom and hoping that someone in the Tokyo area can help me gather some information since this type of thing is impossible to acquire here in the States (plus, I don't speak of lick of Japanese!)


I'm looking for pictures of my Mom's hometown prior to the construction of the new buildings that are found now. In particular, I'm looking for pictures of 1) a building/home before it was demolished or a picture of the current building and plaque in front of the new condos there now 2) samurai armor & weaponry from (the shrine) Katori Gina

If anyone is kind enough to do this - any part of it (I'm not looking for it all (though all would be super awesome ~_~) ... but any of it will do). I will gladly compensate your time and effort. Please leave a message if you are interested (and would like to acquire positive karma for the rest of your life ... lol =P)


What I'm looking for in detail:
2-3-1 Misuji, Taito-ku, Tokyo
* Picture of old building (maybe found in a library or city hall?)
* Picture of the current building (condo)
* Picture of the plaque found in front of the current building that states who built it

Katori Gina (shrine)
Maebayashi samurai armor & weaponry
* Picture of any or all of the sumurai armor and weaponry from the Maebayashi family found in (the shrine) Katori Gina
* Picture of a trunk
* Close-up picture of the Maebayashi kamon (family crest) on the pieces [Family crest is takanoha (two feathers)]
Thanks to Jaeho for proof-reading this >;D

Dear Oppa, I haven’t fo... (Jun 23, 2007 2:59 pm)

Dear Oppa,

I haven’t forgotten about you – all this time has passed but some things are clearer now. Our last conversation was something that came and gone in my mind, and I told myself I would just forget it … and so I did. But after all this time, I realize now how rare it is to find someone that can complete my sentences that’s as wonderful as you.

I’ve been watching a lot of kdramas lately. That’s why I’m writing this cheesy letter here. In the dramas, I often fall in love with the handsome main actor … yet I know that guys like that don’t really exist. Then I remembered you.

I should have flown to Canada and stayed at your parents house back then. But I couldn’t … no, I knew I shouldn’t … she would have hated that and he would have too.

In the end, if I was ever the girl you thought of me as, I couldn't go: because of her and because of him. But know that for a moment, I was so happy to find out that the person I once had the biggest crush on, had a crush on me too. And for a moment when you said you hoped we'd be closer once you moved, I wanted to turn back time because I wanted that too.
 
But then it all sunk in - it was past tense. I thought it was too late for us; that I was happy where I was and I shouldn’t complicate life... But looking back now, I should have gone.

So this letter that I'm writing ... a letter you may never read, is late in the making - in all sense. It's something I should have written (and realized) ages ago.

But now I've said my goodbyes ... and can put away the memories. Oppa, you are awesome! I wish you the best! I hope one day I will meet a person as wonderful as you~
