Jetlag


After two days, four bad movies, and countless sleepless nights, Little J and I have finally joined S in Kyoto. Bless his little heart, J is a good traveler. He lounged and slept in his carseat for much of the two-day journey and made lots of friends along the way (stranger anxiety hasn’t hit yet). The transition to the 13-hour time difference is coming along, and we’re just about back to normal (which includes waking up a few times at night, but at least resembles a full night’s sleep since the sleeping and waking does happen at night rather than during the daytime!).

We’re now official—J and I visited the ward office to register as aliens and to be added to Japan’s national healthcare system.

J is enjoying a windfall of adults these days—his Grandma came on the plane with us, and his Grandpa arrived from California last night. Four adults per baby is just about right in our household!

  1. Will you be able to replicate that barbecued mochi for us sometime?? That sounds amazing... If I ever get to designate an Off, maybe it will be "barbecued rice products" (but never fish on a stick).
