Health and safety day

It was health and safety awareness day at Tiff's school yesterday. There where a lot of vender's there to help educate the kids and parents. The police and fire department where there to lend a hand also. The kids loved getting in the fire truck. I was fairly impressed.

Back home

I got back home Saturday, but the last week has proved to be rough getting back to this schedule. The last two days in Japan I spent shopping and packing. Friday night we stopped in at Roppongi for a few drinks and to see some local entertainment. We headed home before the trains stopped running. We decided to hit up the green car, so we didn't have to stand on the ride home. I had a great time in Japan and hope to visit there again some day.

Day 13 in Japan

I stayed out way to late because when I woke up I had to hurry up and pack my stuff because it was check out time. On my way to the train station I got a hair cut and found this public bath house. I didn't get to shower before I left the room, so I stopped in and cleaned up. I finally got on a train back to Tokyo. I was suppose to go hang out in Shinjuku with Ray's brother inlaw, but I had such a bad hang over all I could do was sleep when I got home.

Day 12 in Japan

Started of the day by walking up a mountain, I tried to see as much as I could In one day. After spending eight hours looking at temples and shrines, I stopped at this place and got a back and foot massage. It was well worth the money. I then found Kyoto's night life and drank until early hours in the morning.

Day 11 in Japan

After I got back from Utsunomiya I stopped by the house for some freash clothes and headed back out to hop on the next train to Kyoto. When I got to Kyoto I grabbed a hotel room and started making plans for things I need to see while I was there. I can't remeber all the names of the shrines and temples I went to but on the first day I only had time to see one.

Dat 10 in Japan

I took the bullet train north of Tokyo to visit a friend in Utsunomiya. We had a hearty dinner and a few drinks. Ray and his family where wonderful host. I just wish I had more time to visit with them. After dinner I grabbed a hotel room and took an early train back to Tokyo in the morning.
