In California

It's the night before the flight to Japan and we're in Los Angeles, the city of fast-talkers, slow-traffic, and expensive appetites. We enjoyed our stay in LA with Lexie's family. They live in Woodland Hills, a little north west of LA. The time had to be short and sweet, because our flight would be on Oct 18th.

Here in California we've been doing some family activities:

(I spelled NAVELS, hehe)

Mostly we've been hanging out and enjoying the west coast, while making sure all of our travel papers were in order. We even took time to get my visa.The weather has been fair, and so have our spirits. The excitement and anxiety are building as we leave tomorrow around noon. We've also been trying to do all the things, mostly food, which we may or may not be able to do when we arrive in Japan. We've had TexMex, CaliMex, and a Big-Ole-Burger and fries.

Stay tuned, because our next post will be from Nagoya, Japan!
