Not too much going on. Still feeling everything out. Today we made a trip to Costco. There are a lot of things from the States, but also a lot of Japanese stuff. Prices are ok, so we have fun. My favorite thing is a folding wagon. Since we have quite a ways to walk from our car, I needed something to get up the hill to bring in my groceries. Found it today and am so excited. The van is now completely registered. Took 2 days and someone else to do the running around on the second day to finish. Been trying to drive whenever I get the chance. This morning I took my friend and her husband to the airport and back by myself. I felt like such a big girl! Other than that, we're just finding our footing and exploring. Tomorrow we're going to head to Zushi, which is the town our housing is in. It's been raining since we moved in, so no big adventures to report. I do wish I had my stuff, but it will be shipped out on the 2nd of May. Next week is Golden Week and we were told to not expect things to be open. It's several holidays together and everyone vacations on this week. Jack also got registered for preschool. Such a big boy. Luke wants to go to school as well, but we're going to look into the cost. Fun times all around. I'm going to put up some much needed pictures, now that my computer is working. It took forever to upload one picture off my phone. So hopefully this goes much faster.
Worn out little boy:)
My new ramen bowls.
This magnet is to let others know that I'm a new driver. They have other symbols as well. The one that should be in FL is the elderly one. It lets people know that there is someone over the age of 75 driving:)
Already had our first mishap. Luke wrote on the wall. This is Luke cleaning up his mistake.

Look Ma, no hands! The cart doesn't move on the escalator. Super cool stuff.
My new grocery cart filled with the loot from Costco.
Directions for our dinner. Japanese pork dumplings. So good, just couldn't read the instructions.

Hi Robin and Family
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are really enjoying Japan. What a great adventure.
I like the car stickers!!! At least it does not say "Beware". Yes, Florida needs them.
Now you have to learn how to cook all of the great things. I want a dinner when you come back to visit!! Are you going to take some cooking lessons?
Japan has great style and arts. Keep us posted. Thanks for the blog. I am enjoying it.
