Karate and a lot of the art and music I am into comes from Japan. I'm also a very technology oriented person and Tokyo is one of the most advanced cities. I'll keep my eye out for that fabric! :) Thanks the comments and everything. Keep them coming! I'll be posting lots of videos and photos of my adventure.

So what I tried to post last time was basically, I think it's terrific you're learning a new language. And the language you're learning isn't like Spanish or French, but a whole other language not based on Latin. Written Japanese is somewhat like reading a Rorschach test, so being able to read and speak and understand it a great feat! Good for you Jim. I'm curious, why did you chose Japan as your first travel adventure? I hope you have a wonderful time. Goodness knows you deserve it. And since my chance of going to Japan is slim to none, I look forward to your posts so I can live the trip vicariously through you. If you see some funky fabric while you're there, bring back a half meter and I can make you a scarf or pillow or something as a remembrance of your first trip! Bon Voyage....er...Sayonara PetBoy's Mom Trying to send a post again…..
