A tale from 2008

I remembered reading somewhere, a long time ago, that Netaji's ashes were kept at some temple in Tokyo. @ArunKrishnan_ and I wanted to visit that place to pay our respects.

Tokyo isn't exactly down the road from this neck of the woods.
Once we decided that we couldn't leave Japan without seeing some Sumo, we made up our minds that we should see Netaji's memorial too.

"Find out where it is," OH said, "and we'll go there this time."

I tried to do this the easiest way possible. I called the Indian Embassy.
The reply I got there has to be preserved for all posterity. On asking where in Tokyo Netaji's ashes were, I was given this answer:
"You can ask the Japan Tourist office."

That was such an undeniably intelligent answer. I mean, I should have thought of it myself.
