Monday

I know, I know. I need to add more pictures to this blog. It's no fun to read a big block of words. I swear more pictures will come as we warm up to Japan. During the week, we don't really leave the base as we're staying at the Navy Lodge and we don't have a car to wander farther than the area immediately outside of the base.

We could take the train places, and we've thought about heading to Tokyo, but can't because staying at the Navy Lodge is expensive and riding the train is expensive, so it's one or the other for the time being. We'll eventually get out there more than once.

Today I went and saw Wylee. He's doing a lot better. He's gained some weight and seems happy and less stressed. He is however still fairly tired. Whenever I go visit him, he's not interested in playing. He wants me to hold him and then he falls asleep curled up in my jacket or laying on my backpack. Tomorrow we move him to a family who lives in Ikego, an area of the base 20 minutes from the main base.

Other than that, today's been a boring day. We go to our Katakana writing class tonight and learn another of the Japanese alphabets. We should be getting the car this week and I'll post lots of pictures of that.
