A couple friends of mine have a brother in the Navy stationed in Japan and wanted to go visit him in March of 2010, and since I had never been there, I thought I would join them for a quick jaunt around central Honshu island. We were able to get direct flights on Delta from DTW-NRT. We also got Japan Railpasses, which ended up being a good value for our trips to Kyoto and northern Japan. The pass gives you totally free rein to all of Japan! And the bullet trains are great!

Mom and I took a quick trip to New York City in April 2009. Here are some pictures and comments from the trip.
This was my fifth trip to NYC — it truly is my favorite city to visit. It is just such an exciting and dynamic place that there is always something new to discover. I know each time I can see something new, but of course you have to see all the classic sites too! This trip, everything was in bloom and it truly was beautiful!

Well, I upgraded Wordpress, deleted like 5000 spam comments, so I’m hoping to write some new blogs soon. The format seems broken and the pictures still don’t work, but I am actually working on it now! Stay tuned…
Just testing the photos capability…
