We spent Saturday having lunch with my uncle Jimmy, cousins' Johnny Bell and Kotoe. We did a lot of sightseeing, visiting asakusa and odaiba island.
Me and uncle Jimmy (my mother's brother)
Tom preached at Oyumino Church on Sunday...he had a translator and did a great job!
Emily (a good friend from VA) met us on Saturday in Tokyo and spent the weekend with us. It was sooo good to see her and spend some time with her...thanks, emi, for coming to see me!
Lunch in china town after walking through Yokohama today, Monday. (these pictures are not in order)
Standing in front of a statue that you cannot see b/c the water fountain is way high. Doing the japanese peace sign.
Isaac (another VA friend, who is here in japan doing college ministry) spent the day in yokohama with us and my cousin!
On the JR going into Tokyo.
The college ministry having some fun on sunday night.
It's been such a whirlwind and so great to be here, and I am so glad to be going home tomorrow! I need to hug my kids and cuddle my babies....so, Kylie, Josiah, AJ, Matthias, and Leighton...I cannot wait to see you and will be coming home soon!!!
More de-brief posts will be forthcoming when I get over return jet-lag. :)

so great to hear of your trip. It was sweet to see that your kids updated at the same time. Looks like they were well taken care of! Hope things settle back to normal.
Karen and Tom,
What a dream trip for you to be able to do this together! It looks like it has been fun and a good break (maybe), and I can't wait to hear how you process things once you're safely home. Let us know when you've landed!!
Love,
swh in stl
