Invite Only

Crystal and Stephanie, I can't read your blogs because it says I am not on the invite list!

So Much Fun

Just a bunch of extras that made the trip fun. There is so much more, but not enough time to tell it all right now! Marcus taking pictures of us over the webcam. Yes, you have to go in a whole in the floor. Out playing softball. Delicous little cakes. Lunch with friends over looking the beach and the coast. And one huge and fun slide...

Beautiful....

On the south end of the island we went to a place where they make beautiful glass and also to a memorial for peace on the island. Those torpedoes were so big!

Beautiful...

The island is beautiful. We drove it all the way from the north end to the south. It only takes about 2.5 hrs. The water is amazing. These are all from the North end and Okuma, which is a military resort on the NW end.

Beautiful..

The day the lockdown was lifted we headed out to see the island. They have an amazing aquarium here. I have never seen such huge animals in my life! The biggest Manta Ray was about 8-9 ft across at least and there were whale sharks in there too.... one was gianormous! The dolphin show was fun too; this one flipped and hit the ball with its tail!

Jeremiah's Birthday

Of course the boy wanted to play baseball on his birthday... and we talked to family over the computer. Next year he will be home for his birthday... I cannot wait!

Saturday Morning in Japan

Well up and Jeremiah is making breakfast....delicious. It and has been cloudy since I arrived here, but the temp is great and the company is even better. Since yesterday was Friday and I do the Lent fasting thing, Jeremiah's friends Ai and Mark invited us over for sushi...it was awesome. I have never made my own sushi before...rolling it all together and mix and matching what goes in it...too cool and very delicious. After that we grabbed ice cream with them and watched a movie at their place. An awesome first day in Japan. Here are some pictures from this morning!
