Wednesday morning is finally here, and it’s a glad and sad day. A sad day because I’m leaving Hawaii, and I won’t see Dan for 2 weeks. But a glad day because I’m headed to the Pacific Northwest to see friends and family! Dan’s cousin and her fiance left Monday, and his parents and aunt [...]

One night when Dan was done working, we set out on foot to find some pretty lights. We had heard that there were Christmas lights in the area but hadn’t seen anything impressive. Unfortunately we didn’t find as many lights as we normally see at home. We did see some neat lit up areas though! [...]

This was a fun one, and a surprise! Dan told me to meet him in Shinagawa around 5:30ish, because we were going to a show. We trained a few stations out to Roppongi and I thought to ask, “is this in Japanese?” and he said, “there’s no talking!” Now I was really stumped. Then we [...]

As I’ve mentioned before, the Disney parks here in Tokyo offer half price admission when you go later in the day. Since Dan and I love Disney this is fantastic for us! I met Dan in Shinagawa when he was done working and we rode out to Maihama to go to Disney Sea. We take [...]

Dan and I have been meaning to visit the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka (Tokyo), and our Christmas Adventure month seemed like a perfect time to go. Dan even surprised me by going into work late so we could spend all morning there! As some of you readers saw, a few entries back I posted a [...]
Christmas Adventure- Bake Shops

When I first moved here, I was shocked at how few baking things I could buy here. Our local grocery store has nothing! A couple interesting looking mixes, some sprinkles, some nuts. It was very disappointing. Luckily my wonderful bestie in Seattle, Kelsey, sent me muffin mix for my birthday, and all you had to [...]

To kick off our holiday festivities, Dan completely surprised me with a trip to Tokyo Disneyland! Because It was such a surprise, I didn’t have my camera with me or get any pictures. I had just had my job interview and I texted Dan to tell him how it went. He told me to meet [...]

As I was pondering what on Earth to get Dan for Christmas, he came up with the genius idea of excursions instead of gifts. We’d spend a little more money going places and doing things and not spend excessively on elaborate gifts. We’ve been having so much fun! Going to some new places and some [...]
