DJ and I took a trip to Hong Kong for our anniversary. It was his third time there and my first so it was his job to show me the sights. Whenever DJ and I take a trip together, I usually end up exhausted since we walk everywhere and all day long. And this trip [...]

Yunesson
August 1st, 2008 · No Comments · Travel
A week or so after the Baystars game, Barbara, Tish and I decided to visit the Yunesson. It’s a swim park, sauna, bath house and so on. We soaked in many different kinds of baths and even slid down a slide. Awesome! This was a rose bath in a jacuzzi style tub. Warm and relaxing. [...]

Barbara and I went out to Jogoshima on Friday morning. It took about an hour to drive out there and we only had a couple of hours to spend there before we both had to be back, but we wanted to get out and see something new! It’s on the southern most tip of the [...]

DJ got home late Friday night and we spent Saturday relaxing and playing with the kitties. Then very early Sunday we got ready and ran to the train station (well…we walked VERY quickly so as not to be late). We had to catch the Shinkansen (bullet train) out of Shinagawa at 7:06am, which meant we [...]

Hawaii Day 1
March 12th, 2008 · No Comments · Travel
We left Sunday night at about 8:30pm and settled in for the six hour flight. It was uneventful and quiet. We arrived on Sunday at 8:30am. I love that, not only do we arrive before we even left Tokyo, but that we get to experience Sunday twice. That’s ok though, because we’ll lose a day [...]

Friday I took a flight to Sapporo to meet D.J. and the boat. It’s an hour and a half flight north (ten hours or so and more expensive by train). We then took the express train about a half hour north west to Otaru. That’s where the boat had pulled in and we were able [...]

Getting up at 4:30am, DJ and I blearily made it to the freezing cold shower room and slowly washed and woke up. We finished packing and said goodbye to the boys and hurried down the mountain with a flashlight. I was glad that I had suggested it since it was still pitch black at 5:30 [...]

After a fitful nights sleep, DJ and I got up at 5:30am and got ready for the day. We left the house at around 7am and made our way to the train station. We had to get some cash at the ATM before we left though, and much to our surprise, the ATM didn’t open [...]

Okinawa

DJ and I went to visit Okinawa because he had some work to do down there. It’s the southern island of Japan and there is a bit more space there. It’s a tad bit more tropical and there are sugar plantations and palm trees everywhere. It doesn’t get as cold there in the winter, but [...]
