Zoorasia


"Sakura" Cherry Blossom time in Japan.

This weekend Mae's former babysitter Hiroko and her family came to visit. We went to Zoorasia in Yokohama. It's a beautiful zoo with lots of play structures for the kids and plenty of walking trails...it's done very well. The only problem was that we went on a holiday time...needless to say there were tons of other people there. We plan to go back on a weekday. You really can't go anywhere in Japan on a Sunday or a holiday and expect anything else. It was a great day though just the same and we enjoyed having our friends with us. Mae was so excited yesterday when they arrived....Shihoko is now in grade 7. I started teaching her whe she was 5 years old...she has grown into a beautiful young girl. Mae loves her.
