Jackie tells me it is Monday. Tomorrow we leave on the Shinkansen for Kyoto. Yea us.
I would love to update you however it has been very active and busy at this end. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Let's see, we have been to Kobe, Onomichi, Hiroshima, Myojima, and back to Onomichi to do the laundry but first we went to Fukuyama this morning. It is approximately 18 minutes by train from Onomichi. Right outside of the train station they have a huge Starbucks. Ah it was so sweet to have my favorite misto. I will be going often to Fukuyama to get my Starbuck's fix. I even sat an hour and a half catching up on my journal and people watching. It was a piece of heaven to know some things are the same the world over.
All of this past week has been so surreal.
The cherry blossom or Sakura is about to blossom forth in all their glory this week. Japan is Sakura crazy. I am looking for to the hanami which is a picnic under the sakura where everyone drinks sake until.....
So off to bed to have some good sleep for tomorrows sleep.
We will stay in a western style Japanese Ryokan. I will fill you in on that later.
Jackie planted her plants outside today. It really is spring here.
All my love

In is now morning. Yes I was a little sleepy last night Jackie. I am wide awake and ready to rock and roll. Kyoto will never be the same.
Hi Mom & Jackie!!
I am enjoying your blog. Sounds like you guys are having good fun.
In response to your earlier blog- Alanna cried most of the way home after we left on Monday night. But she's ok now.
Have a great time in your travels.
My bed time now (probably your awake time...)
