I keep this blog for friends, family and students in Japan& the U.S.

Since Spring '07, Zen and Taka moved to California full time for Zen's basketball career. I'm in California most of the time right now too. Almost every day I go to help my Grandmom. She was born in 1919. Taka and I also get to work for Uncle Lynn's landscaping company. Santa Cruz, California. As beautiful as ever. However I still feel homesick for Japan~~

The Girls Came To Santa Cruz!!

Four plane rides and almost 24 hours later- they're HERE!
They took this little nap while Taka and I made dinner.


The nap and food got them going again- and with Zen they hung out having fun, and managed to go to bed from midnight and slept through the night till the next morning.


We got together with their Great Grandmom for lunch and watched the carp~恋 KOIコイ? in the pond by where we ate. An Italian Restaurant with LOTS of carp!!!


We gave Grandmom's dogs a walk after lunch. Peppermint Pattie, the brown dog, was fearful to leave Grandmom behind, but Sheon and Zen helped settle her nerves.

Charlie Brown is the slow poke. Sheon felt sorry for him and giving him rides. I kept telling her HE NEEDS THE EXERCISE!! But Sheon couldn't bear it, Charlie being the old guy he is, and Sheon the animal lover that she is!!
