For twenty-five years I have believed in all faith that I would arrive at the Pearly Gates. Today I did. We were walking along a street in Tokyo when we happened on a high-scale sports casual wear store that specializes in a brand labeled "Pearly Gates." I could not resist the temptation to have my picture snapped in front of the place. The sunny clear blue skies and cool temperatures that greeted us this morning were a sight better than the cold rainy reception we received last night when we stepped out of the subway station onto the busy sidewalk.The city is as clean and good-looking as its citizens.
