About Me

I'm an American living in Japan for three years while my wife is on assignment here. (Three years has come and gone so I should probably say three years and counting.)

Our First American Visitor

I forgot to mention a visitor/traveling companion we had on our trip to Bangkok. Cecily, a coworker of Marcia's, was able to spend a few days in Japan and we got to play travel guide. Very recently pregnant at the time, Cecily endured trains, subways, lots of walking and an introduction to Japanese food. Having lived here for six months prior to Cecily's visit we may have taken for granted how much walking and public transportation we take in the course of our travels. Needless to say, she was a real trooper.

We enjoyed Cecily's visit and hope that this will encourage some of our other friends to join the adventure.
