Jan 19, one year ago today, we got off the plane with a suitcase and a cat carrier in our hands. A taxi took us to a temoporary flat, just a few blocks from what we now call home. I remember so clearly getting out of the taxi and looking up and down that street in wonder and just a little fear. A street I now traverse daily arms laden with groceries, my mind elsewhere. After trying to settle Wayland and Decibelle for a bit, we realized if we wanted to eat, there was no way but out. It was already nearing 10 pm and we ducked into the first little place we saw, aptly named Cafe Windsor. Deep fried shrimp with curry on rice and a nice cold beer, never tasted better. Though we pass it all the time, we have never been back. If we were to, I suppose tonight would be the night. Three days later we awoke to snow, brite with early morning jet lag and not knowing how unusual the snow was, we went to Meiji Jingu shrine - a blog was born.
