Hey!!

Sorry, we know it's been ages since we've posted. My parents were here for a visit, which was great! We went to Nikko for a couple of days which was beautiful. It's a really small mountain town about a 3 hour drive away. We spent the first day going to Shinto Shrines and the second day we drove up the mountain to go to this lake/falls area. It was about 120metres about sea level. The drive was crazy, super windy switchbacks and sooooo beautiful! Click here to see the pics from Nikko (you don't need a f/b account) and here for the ones from Lake Chuzenji. So beautiful, we had a great time. Really cold though!

We also went to DisneySea, which is like Disneyland but I guess more oceany. It was really nice, lots of fun. There were some great rides, though I really wanted to go on the Tower of Terror, but the line was way too long.


Next time! We also checked out the largest free standing statue in the world, which is about 20 mins from our house. It was...well, big!


The pic doesn't do it justice though, it's unbelievably large.

We're really excited cuz Caitlin & Ashley are visiting us in a couple weeks-yay! Unfortunately, we have to work, but we do have mornings off which will let us hang out a bit.

What else...Bri bought a truck, but I'm sure he'll post about that later. The weather's been gorgeous, it's almost 20 degrees Celsius today! It's ridiculously cold at night though, just crazy!

I think that's it for now, I'll try to be more regular about my postings. I miss everyone at home, so please send me emails!! If you don't have my email, just leave a post and I'll send it to you. I'd leave it on here but I don't know if Blogger sites get spammed. Sayonara!
