After a couple of planes, 3 trains, and a short walk, I (eventually) found my way to my new home all by myself! I only ran into a few minute snags, which were mostly due to my own..anxieties? But that's a whole other discussion, no? Let's move along!
Introducing Yamato-shi!
Yamato is in central Kanagawa Prefecture. We are southwest of Tokyo, northwest of Yokohama, and north of Fujisawa and Enoshima Island. Got it? No? Look at a map. Supposedly, this area has been inhabited for thousands of years according to those history peeps and wikipedia.
We were worried Yamato was gonna be a bit rural-y for our NYC sides, but I think I lived in Maine long enough to appreciate any civilization and public transportation (kidding). But even K is into the area. It's a pretty awesome city and we are liking it more and more each day.

| Tons of awesomely quaint streets. |
| Swanky looking apartments, "La Siesta" |
| The other side of the tracks...not sure which side is the "wrong" side |
| K says, "Let's go buy more than we need at the 100 Yen shop!" |
That's all for now. I've got to get dinner going before K gets home!
Coming soon! Middle school kids are crazy athletic! I'm reunited with my long-lost sister! And an adevtnure to the craziness that is Tokyo ensues! Can you say free visual kei promotional cd and photo op? Yes, yes you can.
