It is the beginning of "Golden Week" here in Japan. You might be wondering "What is Golden Week"? Well, we are glad you ask. This is the most important week of the whole year for the Japanese. Most people have the week off work, or the string of days that amount to close to a week. Let me explain; This year the Japanese will have this Wednesday off work, they will go to work Thursday and Friday. Then they will have Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday off work. The schedule changes every year. If you are a little confused just remember they have a week off work! It is a busy time here in Okinawa because many people from Mainland Japan will travel here for vacation. Even though it is difficult financially this year, many people are still flying to Okinawa.
Well, the girls (Kayo, Naoko and Natsuki) took Joanna out for lunch to celebrate her birthday. They went to a good restaurant and Kayo sent me this picture to tease me because you can see the good looking desert that she was eating. I am jealous because they were eating lunch with that good looking gal in the picture. I love you Joanna, Happy Birthday Celebration with the girls. Tommy
