I don't think so, Banda.The photos of Their Imperial Majesties's arrival and the exchange gift photos and that's it. I don't think they will have any more photos, as it was refered to as an "intimate dinner".

I have see the Emperor and Empress at the Piccadilly circus in London , at the front door of Linnean Institute.
The Empress was very elegance.They are very informal and relax.

You know, I think that of all the Queens/Princess's, that Empress Michiko has never had a bad choice of clothes day. She's always so impeccable, classy, right for any occasion. Though I must say, she does seem to always wear the same type of hats. But their cute! It's so nice to see these two Royal couples interacting!
