Tokyo is NOT Expensive
An open letter to my nieces and nephews.
Dear Tiffany, Justin, Onna, Alex, Jeremy and Sydney,
Cc: Your parents
According to the Washington Post, Tokyo is not as expensive as you think. It’s good time for you to come visit me. While the author probably did not stay in Uncle Swint’s neighborhood, apparently, he spent only US$1000 for a week in Tokyo—including airfare.

I think that Wash Post writer, Ben Brazil, has penned a new slogan for the Visit Japan ad campaign: “If New York never sleeps, Tokyo never even dims the lights.”
He goes on, “Entering this city of 12 million residents -- 35 million if you count the Connecticut-size greater metropolitan area -- feels like entering a room full of TVs, all with the volume cranked up, and trying to watch every channel at once.”
What are you waiting for? Get you reservations now. Operators are standing by…

We got the message loud and clear. Send us the tickets and we are there. Besides Florence is not as expensive as NYC or Tokyo. Operators are standing by to take your call.
From your siblings who are all in Florence for our Mother's birthday. Where are you?
Tokyo may not be expensive, but judging by the date of this last post it must be very time consuming. Busy in the new office?

Apparently "Tokyo is Not Expensive" is the final word on the city.....
Uncle Swint,
I hope you have a wonderful birthday in the other 'not so expensive' city!
From your very favorite sister-in-law!
