  2. Yes, I saw this over at Anne Marie's blog too and was thinking of trying my hand at it as well. But WOW, have you ever been a busy gal in your life so far! How exciting to have lived in Japan! My Rare One and I were there on a trip a few years ago and just LOVED it!

    1. Japan was very interesting. We were often stopped on the streets by college students who would invite us to have a soda with them and talk English. Would love to go back.
