On the Cusp!

Hello! Last night in the Navy Lodge before we head off to NZ! We're pretty excited to have a real vacation together that is "no strings attached". I think we have a pretty solid itinerary ahead of us, thanks to our lovely friends who gave us their NZ expertise (shout out to Mark and Kathryn)! Tonight is just filled with last minute laundry and try to pre-pack before tomorrow, although we still have many errands ahead of us before we leave for Fukuoka tomorrow afternoon. We'll stay the night there so we're close by for our flight the next day. Only a few trips to the post office, NEX, and optical shop before we leave tomorrow, which really isn't SO bad. Well wish us luck! I may not be able to post again until we're in NZ, but I will surely keep you up to date when I can! Hooray for vacation! I suppose this is also the beginning of living out of various cars for a month...so I have that going for me! Mata ne!

It's that time again!

Hi friends! I know it's been a long time since I've updated on our many travels, but that's about to change! We are about to move back to Washington state; I can't believe 18 months went by so quickly. Before we get ourselves to Whidbey Island, WA we are going on VACATION! Casey and I are taking a full on real grown up vacation to New Zealand, where we will be road tripping between the two islands in a hot lime green mini-man that has been converted into a camper! But don't worry, the fun doesn't end there...we will then be flying back to Japan for a day or so and then fly to North Carolina where we will pick up our car and then drive cross country, stopping at various fun places and camping out on our way up to Washington! Stay tuned to be a part of the excitement!
