Catching up!

There has been so much.  We just got internet today.  Couldn't update blog, as we were out of the Navy Lodge, and the military snoops on base don't like me using my laptop for personal business.  Yes, they check.  Fair enough.  Let's catch up!

Here's Baby J being introduced to Soba.  He's still eating his way across Japan.

This was taken at the local mall, Daie.  It's right near base, and is a convenie

nt place to meet after work.  The boys' favorite restaurant is a place called Ducky Duck.  I love dept. stores here in Japan-grocery store, white-gloved parking attendants, lots of restaurants, train access, oh, and anything you need to buy is there.  My special favorite is the 100 yen store-that's right-a dollar store.  A great place to get your cheap dishes, japanese housewife necessities, and hello kitty chopsticks.

Oh, and the rumours are true- check it out....yup, it's a $15.00 melon!  But, it is wrapped pretty.

All fruits and veg are not this expensive!  In fact, I try to buy my veg and some fruits locally.  Oh, and dai

ry is so much better here too.

Here's what you've been waiting for......drum roll.... the apartment.  This has to be the last pic due to storage, but I'l post photos on snapfish soon.  Sorry, Teeny, no flickr.  Snapfish is much easier with Ms. Mac.   The apartment!

The view is breathtaking.  About 1500 sq. ft.  SO MUCH storage.  15 minute (hilly) bike ride to work.  Train station is very close.  Oh did I mention it's the penthouse?

Teehee..

I'll post next time about David's first week of Kindergarten.  Too much too add.

WE ARE READY FOR VISITORS AND HAVE MORE ROOM THAN EVER!!!!

Love to all,

Tricia
