....1.14...Japan...day FOURTEEN...

...just some scenes from this morning's run (jog)...

...I went back to the sea wall...

...it's really probably the best place to run here...

...it was another gorgeous 70 degree day...the weather here has been so perfect...

...then I decided to go down to the lower level to run...

...but it turned out to be not a good idea for me...as my stride doesn't quite match the rather large spaces between the concrete...and I had to pay too much attention to where I was putting my feet...

...so I came back up pretty quickly...and ran almost back to the American Village...

...and on the way back I stopped back at the little park...you've seen this artwork before...

...but a little further down is this rather graphic war memorial...depicting a mother holding her dead baby...war is tragic...

...and the inscription is very a propos...

...translated...

...then we headed over to Our Airman's house...where we're going to babysit the grandbabes...first we played some hopscotch...

...and drew some chalk drawings...

...and some more...Hello Sunshine...

...Big Sissie found a catepillar...she's very friendly with bugs of all sorts...

...showing Papa her new school backpack...

...Our handsome Airman and his beautiful wife heading out for their date night...

...so we ordered pizza...

...which everyone loved...

...cleaned up...

...and played with the glow sticks Dada had left before bed...

~Have a lovely day!
