Happy 29th Anniversary & Memorial Day from Japan and MN

Kon nichi wa
Just got a Happy 29th Anniversary phone call from CJ and he will be out looking at apartments/houses later today "5/26/08 in Japan" for us. He sent a few pics from Yokohama Harbor area and one near Graco Japan. He found a little slice of paradise in the early am,when he came upon a bike path which goes from the train station past his work. Cool ...maybe we will get to take our bikes with us overseas and to keep up with our biking adventures? I think he said the path goes for about 40 miles. Awesome!
It has been rainy there the last few days and he is enjoying lots of noodles when ducking into restaurants to get out of the elements. He said he saw quite a few women with kimonos on in the shopping district yesterday, but none with the skirt or shoe fashions like I showed you the other day :-) He did see these sumo guys on TV and so has gotten get a little T and A action while there. haha
I have been reading all day today while waiting to see if the big storms are going to pass us over here in MN. I am trying to make some sense of the harigana syllables and how to make the Japanese characters. It is very interesting and a bit challenging as well. I am having fun and getting more excited each day! I told CJ I am kind of liking the idea too, that I get to go over there for 2 years and I can NOT work, so I will just have to enjoying playing and exploring every day. Now that is a GREAT 29th Anniversary gift don't you think? :-)
More later
