Okinawa Soba

While all Japanese are pretty healthy, the Okinawans hold the record for longevity. They are considered ultra healthy within Japan.  Not only is their food slightly different, they have a rule: only eat until you are 80% full.

I am trying to obey but it is hard with such good food around. We drove out in to the countryside. This farm has a restaurant attached and it features Okinawa Soba.


Four more years!

I'm thrilled to find that President Obama won the election. I found out when we stopped at Docomo to get my mother-in-law's phone fixed.  My husband said "Go inside and you'll see who won the election."


Fly the freindly skies of Pokemon

Haneda airport has really spiffed itself up.  Look what airline we flew,

That's right, we flew Pikachew!
