Saturday, October 14, 2006. Welcome back dedicated readers! To those who are visiting for the first time, just Welcome! Imagine, if you would be so kind gentle reader.Times Square in New York, on a busy day, but at night. Got it? Okay now imagine that you are 8 feet tall in Times Square, there is no honking and people are rigidly obeying Walk/Don't Walk signs.still with me in this crazy/fantasy/voodoo world? No, it's Tokyo. Do you have any idea how late it was? You will be humiliated.". I finally realize...

Same great taste. double the calories. Thursday, May 11, 2006. Abel Tasman - Day 2. I don't know what woke me up first, the sun, the cold or whatever was under the tent that kept jamming into my leg. Maybe I never fell asleep in the first place. I looked over at Jane, she had the same look on her face that I imagine I had; tired, uncomfortable, and ready to hike. The two hour detour. We decided as we were already up and genki, we would do the latter. Simply stated. amazing. We reached a path alongside th...

Same great taste. double the calories. Thursday, March 16, 2006. Insert excuse for not updating sooner HERE). Ok, now that that's taken care of, perhaps some pictures of us at the mountain? Spring skiing has begun. We are indeed marvelous. Take note of that. Way back when I returned from Hokkaido, was treated to a nice surprise. Jen sent a box of birthday decorations from the US which Joycie had set up for my return. Next the arrival of the Dark Lord BROOKLYN. There actually is a pen 15 club after all.

Same great taste. double the calories. Thursday, November 2, 2006. Things I did during 十月. Of course, its not all that bad. Unlike any other creature when leaves die, they look nice, and that's what we look forward to in New York. Since other seasons are extreme or make us sneeze, we like the fall because its comfortable and pretty. Nextly, we had School Festival. I wrote about this last year. I gotta pause for a second to preface with an introduction. This is Shimada-sensei. Five hours folks. We kar...

Same great taste. double the calories. Tuesday, April 17, 2007. Sorry for the delay in posting. Been busy as hell. Although Cambodia was only a 2 day trip, we packed a lot into it, so I am going to break the trip into a bunch of parts. First, a picture-less prologue- the arrival. Ok, anyway, so we pay the exorbitant fee and begin our walk. no, we begin our trek. Ok, back to the airport. Look at a map of Cambodia (since you are lazy. here you go:). For one thing, Cambodia is an amazing place. The peop...

Same great taste. double the calories. Monday, June 19, 2006. It's raining, it's pouring, Jane Conrad is snoring. My eyes opened and my first breath of air was that sort of wet musty air that brings with it the immediate realization that although I did not hear the steady syncopation of raindrops, Abel Tasman was soaked. After I got sick of pulling shell fragments from my bleeding feet) ended up producing a unique odor that plagued us for the remainder of the trip. Clearly the Tiki gods were not pleased ...

Same great taste. double the calories. Friday, February 17, 2006. Nakano Boys Hit Hokkaido. I spent a while trying to figure out whether to spell "Nakano Boys" with a s or a z (like the kids are doing thee days). Since it is a moniker that is not of our design, I can only make assumptions as the the proper spelling. Best laid plans of mice and men often go awry. Last week proved Robert Burns' quote to be a major understatement. The next day, we put our game faces back on and were ready to go. We reac...

Same great taste. double the calories. Monday, February 26, 2007. A Christmas Tale of Blood, Gambling, and Fisticuffs from Oops. Day 5 - Bangkok - 12/25. Correction: Big Oops. We woke up, grabbed our stuff, checked out and grabbed a cab for Bangkok airport. We had about one hour to get to the airport and check in. We begged, pleaded, flirted and did everything else that we thought might help, but at no avail. Our seats were gone. Until the warm helpful heart of a benevolent sales manager. Note: Just now ...
