We've arrived in Japan! The flight was extremely long...11 hours...then a 2 hour drive from Yakota Air Base to Yokosuka Naval Station. We are living in two adjoining rooms here at the Naval Lodge (Navy Hotel) until a house comes available. We are expecting a very long wait, but we may get lucky!



Little things become interesting here...take the vending machines, for example. Devon went out to get his Mom a diet Pepsi and returned with Yen (he exchanged it at the hotel desk) and this little Pepsi Max. He was very proud of himself.



I also added a "Japan Time" widget for my Mom (and anyone else) so she can call us with the confidence that it is not 2:00 AM!

    Your pictures are really good. I really like the clocks too - no guessing needed now. Let me know when you have email and phone numbers working.
