Japan : the rise of rising sun

Finally we are in Japan...ok, we've been here for almost 2 weeks but because we've been wandering around, we are finally updating the blog. in other words, procrastination. ha ha. the pics are yuko's aunt's house where we are staying. she has multi-family house and we live on the second floor. jamie sleeps on a bed, yuko sleeps on the floor on a futon. its very old(retro) japanese style house...a bit cold but otherwise comfy.
