i love your blog. i am an anthropologist and also japanese american. i visited japan once a few years ago and your blog helps me understand so much about every day japan. and i felt a kinship when i saw your picture of different type of tree supports--i have similar pictures! keep up the good and interesting work.
Happy New Year to you, too! Thanks for all the wonderful photos in 2006. I enjoyed getting to know Japan better, and I look forward to more in 2007.
