Happy bday and welcome back. Japan is such a special place. All the feels. (PS that’s likely not a real account. I had “George Saunders” and someone else famous I don’t remember now. . .)
Konnichiwa, and Kanpai! (used often in my home when sake cups are in hand). A very close friend of mine is a professor of Japanese literature, yet the only words I know besides those, are related to rolling maki—which I am surprisingly proficient at. I hope you had an incredible time and collected volumes of forever memories, with perhaps a couple of stories simmering on the burner.🎉🎂🎈🍱🍣
"It is like people from across the world on an island somewhere invented their own culture." Welcome home to you and your beautiful family.
Thanks, Mary. 🙏
Great photos! And love your comments.
Thanks, Jeanine.
Girls never know how beautiful they are. That photo of the tree? Also a beauty.
(Sometimes women don’t either.) Thank you for liking my tree.
The perspective reminds me a little of a tree Georgia O'Keeffe painted while visiting D.H. Lawrence. You can see it in Hartford at the beautiful Wadsworth Atheneum. https://www.thewadsworth.org/learn/education/virtual-studio/alternative-angles/

It was real in Japan.
😂 sorry to be a Debbie Downer
Love all these pics!
