Hello Everybody!
It's been 4 months we've been in Japan already, time flies! After catching a few japanese germs, we are all little by little feeling better. Louanne runs in her walker, found her balance, sneaks in my drawers, is mischievous, learned how to wave and say Maman...
Aaron works hard and goes fishing once in a while in the mountains and i am studying hard Japanese language!
Attached are a few pictures of our october getaways.
Kisses to all

September Getaways!

Je grandis et grace aux inventions japonnaises, je peux m'assoir sur ma propre chaise...I am growing up and thanks to Japanese inovations, I am able to sit on my own chair :)


I discovered how drawers work :) That made me happy...


Onsens, hot springs on the pacific, u cannot really see them but there are there...just behind those rocks with a great view :)

An afternoon @ the beach about 2 hours from home, we even napped on the beach towel.

Hello everybody !
We had a lot to do in September. The weather has been much better, about 25 during the day and 18 at night, we enjoy it a lot better. People here are dressed like it is damn cold, we are still in short sleeves and are finally able to open our windows all day :)
We went to Gujo-Hachiman which is a typical little Japanese village with many springs inside the village. We escaped for a week end to Shirahama, on the Pacific, south of Osaka... It was beautiful, a little paradise, similar to Hawai we were told. There, we tasted the famous hot spings "Onsen" which were right on the Pacific, the view was gorgeous and it felt very relaxing.
Last week end was the 3 Samourai Nagoya festival, historic sites and gardens were free for the day. We saw a parade with many Japanese traditional outfits, it was a good time, then we walked around a beautiful garden and pond area.
Aaron and i both started our Japanese classes, I have already learned quite a bit and i am able to communicate much better than when we arrived. I start to know my way around town. Louanne is going to the daycare twice a week and really likes it, she is now smiling when i drop her off there. She starts to stand on her feet and make steps if we hold her, she is not liking to crawl at all but wants to stand constantly. She has been very talkative lately and is a very smily baby- we said bye bye to fussy times finally :).
Hope u r all doing great. Enjoy the pictures and those beautiful sceneries.
