The first day in Japan, a chance in the middle of the busi-ness, we stopped near home at a restaurant for SOBA. (buckwheat noodles)~
"REAL" tempura (no american carrots or broccoli..."sorry" they aren't meant to be tempura really.)
This is where they make the final noodle cutsAnd then, out the window, the scenic japanesey view~ picture perfect for Japan really
There was really no time for Taka to enjoy Japanese newspaper or TV. He was too busy. Even I...after a week, have started to feel out of it. There's not the tv, or CNN in Japan like we have in Santa Cruz. No, I can't understand the Japanese (language), and interestingly...maybe lots of people are trying to NOT watch it now. Even meeting old friends, people are not bringing up what's gone down. It does make me prefer to hear CNN. I hear more in the States than I can right here in the country of Japan, I regret to say.

Hi hi, good to hear from you. Lots of info on the internet of course! Wish I could have real tempura with you. Someday... Is Taka's dad in the hospital and when do you come back to CA? xoxoBJ
BJ my buddy!!! We'll make tempura with you next chance together!
Yes, Taka's father is in the hospital. Today Ischin, Naomi and I will see him. I'm making banana bread muffins for him now~
I'll go back to CA. April 21st.
The next teacher coming for my school will get to Nishio April 16th!
From some of the hardest times, to little by little getting back great things.
