Look What's In Our Backyard!!!!!!!

Found this yesterday, walked 10 minutes from our house and upa ton of stairs, went into the trees and along the trail and 15 minutes later we were here! Besides this there was a huge climbing rock with a bunch of climbers on it and a Movie Crew filming a Samari Movie. Neat Day :)

Tokyo Video Game Show

Liam and Brian went to the Tokyo Video Game Show, well we all went but sperated at the entrance- I made my way to the Disneyland Shopping Area and Starbucks, the show was toooo crowded and couldn't even find a bathroom. They had fun trying the new games out that had not benn released yet. There was a special kids area and you had to be with a kid to go in, so that was nice too- they got to try a lot of games there also. The Disney area was packed too but I was able to find a cushioned chair at the Starbucks in the shopping center and then walked around looking at the Disny stuff. Tiring Day!

Lame Stickers

A package of Shiny, Lame Stickers found at the 100 yen shop in Japan. Funny!

Haunted Looking House

I could not find ny recent pictures that did not contain close ups of peeople so I thought this would be fun! This is a house we saw last year in Corpus Christi, I think it was turned into a Musuem. Looks like a haunted house.

Grass Slide

A huge, gigantic grass slide at the park. I think it was 200 or 300 yen (about $2-$3) to use the sled and go up and down as much as you want for 20 minutes. Can we go for an hour???? no problem- how tired would that make you......

In the Floor Storage

Here is something neat in our house. I wish there were more (like in every room!) the only thing weird is in our house when I lifted the floor storage thing out to clean it- you could see the dirt under the house- so it is not sealed. Since it is not sealed I only keep oddball stuff in it- not my dishes or food or anything. We keep drinks and stuff like that. Here is a picture:

Foreigner in Kimono

I think that's what this was called. We saw this at the Art Museum in Yokohama and you could take pictures in it- then we saw the actual painting of this and I think it was called "Westerner or Foreigner in Kimono) they had a lady cut out too. I thaught it was interesting that the artist had an American looking person in the original and then we photograghed in it- making it just like the painting- it was kinda neat. They have a lot of neat looking classes there for kids and teachers I may look into after it cools off a little and things start to slow down. Was sick last weekend so am just starting to post again- be sure to check back often :)
