Showa Park Japan



We went to Showa Park which is a huge park. You can bike or walk all over it. We chose biking but there is also play areas with slides and huge white bouncing things (it rained and they had those closed) and a list of just about every activity you can do. Here are the roller slides and you get this vibration sensation going all through you. Josh and Karla were muddy when they had finished.


Yokota AFB house


From the front of our home you can see the church just on the other side of the fence. The other picture is the front view of our house. Its a 4 bedroom house and I do like it. The kitchen isn't anything to speak of and definitely my kitchen in Texas out does this one but over all I can't complain, especially when I see what most of the housing is like on base. It pays to be married to a colonel.

Kelly and Kelly used cars


This is a used car lot in Japan. In fact this is one of the nicer ones. The inside is very small with as many cars cramed together as possible. You are not allowed to test drive a car. You can only look and turn the key. That is it. You do have to realize that the Japanese take pride in what they sell you and you wont get a lemon. So far I would believe that.

747 Business Class Aug 6/7, 2008



We flew business class on our way to Japan. This is the only way to travel however I'm not sure if the pocket book would agree. It was strange to think that we lost a day in that flight as Japan is 15 or so hours ahead of the U.S.
