Trip to Canada, Halloween, Auntie Tomoko, and more....


Hello again!


It sure has been a busy few months since I last spoke to you.

In all this time, I went to the An Pan Man Museum in Yokohama, we moved to a new place, went to Canada, attended a Halloween event at my kindergarten, hosted mom's friend Mariko & her daughter Na-chan, and finally, we visited Auntie Tomoko, who recently gave birth to a beautiful little girl named Sara.


Trip to Canada (September 19-25)

At the end of Later in September, we went to Canada to visit my grand-parents as well as my uncle Luc and my auntie Paulette & my cousins. I had a great time, especially teasing and tickling everyone. We spent a lot of time at my uncle Luc's place who now lives on a big block of land with his own forest, chickens, rabbits and 2 dogs. I took a 4-wheeler ride and roasted marshmallows in the fire pit in the backyard. I also managed to see some Ontario Northland trains and visit North Bay's Discovery Museum. Can't forget those few trips to Wal-Mart to buy some goodies! I'm already looking forward to my next visit.


Visit to Auntie Tomoko & Sara (November 7)
Early in November, we visited auntie Tomoko, who had just given birth to a beautiful little baby girl named "Sara". Auntie Tomoko is doing very well and is now very busy with Sara. We took a walk to a nearby temple and enjoyed a summer-like afternoon.
On the way there, I had to try two of my favourite trains, the Shonan monorail and the world-famous Enoden. All in all, a beautiful day. Again, we want to congratulate auntie Tomoko on the birth of her beautiful little Sara.


(A musical slide show of our visit to Tomoko's place can be seen here.)


Mariko and Na-chan's visit (October 31)
My mom's friend from work, Mariko, and her daughter Na-chan, had dinner with us. It was nice to see Na-chan again and treat her to an evening in my playroom.




Gyosei Halloween Event! (October 24)
I disguised myself as a vet to attend my kindergarten's "kids-only" Halloween event. I had a lot of fun and wished my folks could have come trick-or-treating with me. We did manage to take a few pictures when mom and dad picked me up. Dad is dressed up as a Quebec Nordiques' fan in case you were wondering...


Our New Place (September)

At the beginning of September, we moved in to our new place. It's much bigger than the previous place and I have my own dedicated playroom! Whoo hoo! Dad has his own office too and can close the door when things get rowdy. We can see Tokyo Bay from our balcony, which is beautiful on a sunny day. Oh yeah... and my kindergarten is only a few minutes' walk.
Here are a few pics from our condo's original website.



Visit to An Pan Man Museum in Yokohama (August 15)
In the middle of August, I went to the An Pan Man Museum in Yokohama. When I was younger, he was my favourite superhero. Although my allegiances have changed over the years, I still enjoyed hanging out with all the gang at the museum.

Has it been 3 months already?

Wow, sorry folks!
Didn't think it had been this long since my last post. Well, hopefully there will be enough here to make up for lost time.

Trip to Oyumino with Dad (August 10)
Auntie Tomomi's Place
We had lunch with auntie Tomomi and I had plenty of playtime with Megumi & Akari.


Little Garden Day-care
Hard to believe I finished up here more than two years ago. Caught up with my absolute favorite teacher, Rie Sensei and played with some new friends.



My New Bike (August 9)
Finally got it! My red "Jeep Commando" bike. It's got lots of mileage already!

Check out my new wheels.
