Taken from our apartment’s balcony. I dearly want to bike up the mountains in the background.

Update:

We are alive! Obviously. We have since come back to the states, currently in Oregon now. We moved from LA to Portland, wanted to try out a new place, find some new scenery.

We have been soo busy! We got an apartment, are currently looking for jobs as much as possible, trying to stay out of the rain but enjoy ourselves.

We loved our Japan trip, and hope to return again soon. Hopefully the visa situation will be better by then and we could stay longer. :)

Thanks for following!

We Did It!

We graduated from our Language school today, being that it was our last day, and we feel great! It's good to have that accomplished and to have gained a ton of knowledge of the Japanese language that we didn't know before hand.

However, a quick change to our plans, we are going back to the states sooner than we thought.

Soon as in in two days soon. (Sunday!)

It's sad to be leaving this great city and we will surely miss it. I can't wait to come back though, whenever that may be. But this adventure has been really worthwhile and a completely wonderful experience.

We will miss the teachers that were a great help to us, and the friends we made along the way.

We are however, happy to go back and see our other friends and family back in Los Angeles.

Every day is a new beginning, so we look forward to our next one!

(which happens to be Portland Oregon muwahahah)

Stay tuned (lol) for the return adventure (we get to go to China...well the airport but China none the less! haha).

Did you know a place where sailors like to hang out?

WOULD YOU LIKE TO PLAY A GAME OF LUCKYHIT?!

We discovered our favorite ramen restaurant finally. It's so delicious and soo cheap! Cheaper than any other place we have been to yet so far, and it's about a 10 minute walk from our place near Tenjin Core. A bowl of Chashu ramen is only about 450 Yen ($5USD or so) and takes about 5 minutes to get. Yum~

A silly photo of Caitie. Oh yeah she dyed her hair. It was supposed to tone her color to a silver but ended up turning it a sort of "lilac" color. Looks pretty cool anyways

Here is a silly photo of Wylie. hahaha

Sorry there aren't more photos of substance. Not much has been going on lately. Just school, hanging out, and lot of yummy food.

Our personal favorite: Japanese Curry. Home made!

Sorry for the lack of updates! My phone has been dead and I can't take photos otherwise. Here is some home made sukiyaki we made a week ago with tons of veggies and some yummy pork. :)
