Lovin Japan ~ Escalators


We will miss high pitch talking escalators.

Escalators which are interesting to ride at the train station....BTW the gal in the center is sporting a look known as Yamanba or Ganguro. Note the expressions of the other gals....and that I've only seen this in big cities.

I truly will miss riding the escalators in Japan. Many fun memories of luggage carts, shopping carts, two way foot traffic on various escalators.

Shiriya on Saturday


Today we drove up to Cape Shiriya - the Northeastern tip of Honshu - with dear family friends. Due to Mr.'s employment we will not mention names and have carefully cropped photos to make it look like we were all alone. ::snort:: 

We were disappointed NOT to see horses wandering all around the coastline....we even went looking for them in the trees...

It WAS WINDY today....and that made for a beautiful Ocean...though our picnic had to be in cars instead of beach side as planned and Mrs. and I look like Ninjas in all our photos. ::wink::








 Mr. found two glass floats. These were the first his family has found on their assignment. It began to hit today that we'll all be moving soon. They'll move mid-June; we'll move mid-July. It's also great to spend time with Mr. G out exploring together.  (Note Arielle has confirmed this coat puts 50 lbs on me.)
