I will visit all the links you cite. Stay safe but watch the contamination in food supplies from affected areas (I guess all kinds of production has halted in areas affected anyway?) So, watch what you eat and I am very proud of you. Once again stay safe. KEEP YOUR BLOG ALIVE. Lots of love, Aunty Noory By the way we donated a modest amount to a Korean Budist NGO doing collections for Japan at Markham supermarkets. I like Red Cross and promise to do my part.

I was also super impressed with the Keio Plaza. I couldn't believe how HUGE it was! I also agree that alot of the seminars were super lame, but it was fun to meet people and share that nervous, excited energy with everyone! I wish we could have been at the same orientation! I'm excited to read how Fukui is! :D Ouch, 9 hours =\

I live in a surrounding prefecture and did a roadtrip there once. Echizen is awesome, and I've heard the Dinosaur Museum is amazing. Kanazawa in Ishikawa is a great weekend trip to get some culture. Also, Fukui-shi actually had a decent liquor store in town with imported Belgian beer, which is a big plus in my book. I liked Fukui when I visited!
