I spent a great couple of nights last weekend at THE BAR. Its a bar in Miyazaki above the Pauls Smith Clothes shop not far from the main Miyazaki Station.@The owner, Sean, from New Zealand has a great little establishment there. Its only been open for less than a year but its the night spot of choice for all the foreign community in town and most of the Japanese people too if the crowd on Friday and Saturday nights ...

So what do emergency brakes and a rental car have in common? It turns out you can't set the GPS on the rental car if the emergency brake isn't on. Try to figure out that one when all the instructions are in Japanese!! And then... try to find the emergency brake. When we first rented the little car we got the key turned... engine on.... controls figured out... and then ... whumph... you can't move when the brake is on so ...

The inevitable question, "What does it feel like to be back?" It's a sensory overload to have everyone chattering at you (and each other) in unaccented English. After 9+ months of zero native English speaking people, it's overwhelming to have all the English conversation, radio, TV, newspapers and magazines. Suddenly, I can understand what they want me to buy and I still don't want it. I am surprised though, how non ...

... Beppo. A good reminder of how friendly people are. After almost a month of enjoying the crisp air and fall colors of the hills of Japan, we arrived in Miyazaki, which reminded me more of San Diego CA, with its palm trees and beach sand, then the New England hills of Japan. We spent a couple of days kicking around Miyazaki enjoying the last of the mochi treats and Hello Kitty shopping. Nov 15 is Shichi-go-san which ...

... there are a LOT of big spiders, perhaps there is a connection here), but camping next to the bug park is not encouraging. As we turn, I look UP at the hilltop and a light up there and think "that BETTER not be it". It was. 45 minutes of mostly pushing the bikes up steep, slippery asphalt (wet, and lots of moss growing on it), we arrive at a completely deserted, closed for the season campground. BUT they left the bathroom open and the water on, which is all we need, and ...

Mushi Mushi (How the Japanese answer the phone), I`m very open to experiencing new things, but I would LOVE a meal without some sort of fish product. My stomach is rebelling from my new Japanese diet and my appetite is almost completely gone. I`m eating about as much as Meghan or Oliver in a given day. Today was my first vocational ...

Unreal is only word I can use to describe the last 2 days. Just a hint: 3 days in Japan = 3 nights of Karaoke! We have been treated like rock stars since the day we arrived. 5-10 Japanese Rotarians are constantly shuffling us around to various sightseeing destinations. In 2 days I have learned how to perform Zen Buddhist Meditation Ceremony complete with punishment, visited ancient burial grounds, toured a Plasma TV factory, walked ...

... at themselves, they point to their nose. After several tense moments of conversation I figured out that everyone was not telling me that I had a big nose, but they were trying to tell me about themselves! My humor is hard to translate here. One of the translators was a fashion designer. I asked her if she could design a shirt that could me lose 10 pounds. She didn't laugh and said she would bring me a shirt later. . . Maybe she can! Have to run!

... how "our masseur will treat you as a king at your room." Another one promoted the Rainbow Channel as their special 24 hour Adult Channel complete with skimpily dressed Japanese girl on the front, playing volleyball on the beach! Needless to say, I didn`t leave my room for the next couple of days... Just kidding of course, because as tempting as it was, I knew I had to make an effort to see some of the sights, beginning with a short train ...
