Hi Sherry, I'm at a Starbucks in New Jersey. I wish I were in Japan laughing at you ... oops I mean laughing WITH you. My sister has a network but nobody can remember the password, so Starbucks to the rescue. How exciting. Soak it all in. I'll be reading. Inger

Hi again Sherry, My sister from Norway came to visit and we are down in New Jersey shopping and spending time with my other sister. It has been hard to be away from my computer. Well now I have a few minutes to read the earlier blog entries. I got goose bumps, you have such a beautiful way with words. It's a thrill experiencing this trip with you through the miracle of the web. Thanks for taking the time to fill us in. Al Gore just was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize today, he is in the same distinguished group as Teddy Roosevelt. Somehow this makes 1905 so real. This is important work you are doing for the next generation. You are constantly in my thoughts, even though I can only tell you that from a Starbucks. Enjoy, Enjoy. Inger

Nice writing by Ms. Wood, and she no doubt has a fresh, clean smile thanks to her innovative use of handsoap.

Sherry,

I have to tell you that I am so addicted to your daily blog. I just love it. It's a good thing you have a great sense of humor. I'm laughing out loud, not at you BUT with you as you so wonderfully describe your hotel adventures. As far a kneeling, you'll be just fine. After all this is why you go to Curves!!!

You're in my thoughts. Good luck!!!

Following your journey with pride. Your grandmother used the old soap routine often. As to the knees, after the first 15 minutes it will get easier. Ask any Altar Boy!

Toilets are a funny thing. They may be ubiquitous, but their switches and swirl patterns vary the world over. A toilet mishap is therefore forgivable, I think, especially considering we have all had them. Of course, I couldn't say that with certainty since the experiences we have with toilets tend to be solitary, but I'm inclined to believe that it is so.

Hope all goes well in Kyoto. I always thought it sounded like an interesting place. Enjoy the kneeling. When else will you have an oppurtunity to devote so much time to it?

It sounds like you are having a great experience in Japan, with some minor difficulties along the way. I hope the rest of your journeys are equally exciting and mind-opening. And beware of toilets!
