Admiral Perry's first landing was along the entrance to Tokyo Bay on the SE side [see a map] on the entrance to the bay next to a town known today as Kurhihama. I discovered this one day when I was stationed there with the US Navy when my wife and I had decided to walk down to the beach from our near by apartment. We were new there and it was our first exploratory walk out, we were walking along the sidewalk when I saw a stone monument that I became curious about. I was thinking about whether or not to take the semi-long walk across the sand to look at it when my wife said, "It will probably be written in Japanese." [She is the type of traveler who likes to get there as quickly as possible which drives those of us who like to take our time along the way -- nuts! But probably no more so than we drive those who are in a hurry to get there -- nuts!]
