New favorite restaurant

Our first night out when we got here, the Petersons took us to a soba restaurant. I think that means noodles with soup. It was a little place tucked inside a shopping plaza in American Village. We returned again tonight since I think it is my new favorite restaurant. It's pretty cheap too. When you first come in there is a vending machine where you put yen in and make your dinner selection. It spits out tickets with our order on it which I give to the waiters. A few minutes later, voila....yummy soba in front of my taste buds. The kids love it to and it's close to our house so I'm sure it is something we will frequent often.

I got a new haircut and color today. It was too long to handle in this heat. Now it's off my neck and I'm much happier.

Yum...soba!

Your kids are going to have such an amazing experience! Think of all the things they've already been introduced to in the one month you've been there!

Your hair is perfect! I love it! Glad you found a new place to eat. We have an asian place next to our hotel that we go to at least once a week. Keep us posted.

Wait! you're already there??? Oh, I've been so wrapped up in my own move I didn't even wish you well on yours! I hope you guys made it safe and that your goods made it safe and that you're slowly adjusting. Take care over there and enjoy every minute!
