Living in Japan

We had an amazing time living in Japan from August 1999 to September 2000. Here are some of our favorite stories:

August

Dripping wet in the nicest hotel in the world
1095 tasty dishes
A grave children's' book
Obligatory visit to Meiji Shrine

September

In search of the perfect apartment
Conducting an important phone call in four poorly-understood languages
The elderly get no respect
Complete idiots
Large men in small loincloths
Finding the perfect apartment, part two
Real-estate Catch-22

October

Tokyo Motor Show
Kicking around town
The giant flaming snails of Izu
Biking around Shimoda

November

A great railway journey
Out the back of the train
Dinner on the Orient Express
What a funny trip
Rolling towards Bangkok

December
