Since I last posted, I have been in a whirlwind of activity. I did visit the Osaka Castle and will post photos at a later time. For now, do a google search and see it for yourself. I also went to Arima Onsen which is set in the mountains outside of Kobe, Japan.
Kobe experienced an enormous earthquake around 12 years ago or so. It is now rebuilt and is an amazing city. I went to both Arima and Kobe with my friends Yuriko and Irene. I have known Yuriko since 1983 when I was a student at ICU in Tokyo for my junior year of college abroad. Irene was a student teacher at Jackson Elementary last year and was in my classroom daily teaching.

Starting my Blog
After a long time, I am finally getting my blog together. It's really a competitive thing - as my sisters have had blogs for some time now. I enjoy reading about their travels, thoughts and lives in general. Hopefully my blog will be as interesting as theirs.
I have two very interesting children. Lian (shown in the tree) is an amazing reader. She'll read anywhere - obviously. She is a 7th grader. My son Eli is in 9th grade.
