It's been like 5 years since there were top ranked Sumo matches on Okinawa. We were lucky enough to check these big guys out.

Maddie's Walk

Here's a little video about Maddie Mutt's daily adventures.


Kyoto


We went to Kyoto, Japan for Thanksgiving. It was spectacular!!! We saw a ton of beautiful shrines, temples and even a few Maiko-san running around. It was a site to see. The fall leaves were in full swing and the air was crisp with the feel of winter arriving. Here is one picture of a maiko-san. She is a Geiko-san in training... in other words training to be a Geisha... which is a performer. They go to school to learn to play instruments and sing and dance. Beautiful. Scroll down to the bottom to see some more photos.
