    Little known beautiful places: Johns River – Westport, WA

    August 7, 2018 /

    This isn’t in the photos, but it’s foggy and cold this morning in western Washington. It’s the weirdest summer I’ve ever experienced — foggy, frigid mornings, cool days, and then freezing nights! It’s not very pleasant for a desert creature like myself, but it’s quite nice to sit inside and write in my blog a least. I have to say, it sure is weird, though. It’s August and I wear a sweater or sweatshirt most of the time and then I’m still cold! ^^; There are a few sunny days here and there, though. I get out on those days, into the wilderness and bright blue beyond. Sometimes, I just…

    Fossil Hunting at Lincoln Creek

    July 31, 2018 /

    Recently, I’ve found myself thinking more often than not about the past – mistakes I’ve made, where I could have done better, things like that. I think that’s a symptom of unhappiness, really, so yeah… I’m putting a stop to that. It’s a hard and imperfect stop, but I’m not willing to continue to think about things that I can’t change. Instead, I am going to look forward — to my next step and how to make it count! That’s how I’ve been trending, anyway, I hope you can tell! I guess that makes it funny that I roped people into going fossil-hunting with me! Get it? THE PAST. But, I…

    Visiting Halloweentown!

    October 22, 2017 /

    Sometime over the summer, I saw a video on Facebook about a little town in Oregon where it’s Halloween all year long. Halloween? OMG YES, I LOVE HALLOWEEN! You’re not the only one dressing up for once, so it really doesn’t feel awkward to let your geek shine! Especially now that “sexy” halloween costumes aren’t the only “cool” option. I mean, as if nerdy costumes were ever less than cool, but I digress. History has been hard to us nerds. Anyways! So, I saw a video for this Halloweentown that made it look really, really cool, and I thought, hey, I have to go!  Guess what? I did! 😀 Here is…

    Nice photos from a restaurant I didn’t really enjoy.

    September 21, 2017 /

    It can’t all be roses, I guess! But when you’re paying $20 and up per plate, you’d think that there would be a nice selection of things to order. But skip the Surf Lanai if you want a decent selection. As a vegan, anyways. Or anyone with vegan friends. One thing I will give the Royal Hawaiian’s beachfront restaurants are that they’re pretty. The RH is probably the prettiest hotel in Waikiki, unless you think that the classic architecture of the Moana Surfrider is nicer. It’s a tossup, really! But, I mean look at this. The menu, though, was so laughable that I didn’t even take a photo of it. There were…

    Afternoon Tea at the Halekulani

    August 17, 2017 /

    Endless blue skies and gorgeous summer weather. That’s what I think of when Afternoon Tea comes to mind, and Halekulani’s Orchid restaurant, set right up against Honolulu’s world-famous Waikiki Beach, didn’t disappoint. In a way, it was perfect. Here’s me sitting at the table, surrounded by clean, warm air and the quiet chatter of other tourists. Getting There Waikiki is conveniently located right in Honolulu, along the oceanfront (duh!). Most of Oahu’s major hotels are in Waikiki, so the Halekulani is just a short walk away! If you’re coming from somewhere else, the best way to get there is to drive East along Kalakaua Ave and turn right on Lewers…

    Four new convenience store drinks I tried in Tokyo

    July 6, 2017 /

    1000 bottles of pop on the wall, 1000 bottles of pop! That’s basically Tokyo in a nutshell, at least in my 9 years of experience (cue Horio here). Japan is all about the newest fad, the latest little libation, and especially gentei nomimono (limited-edition drink). Well, gentei anything, really, but especially those liquids. I don’t think that these drinks are necessarily limited-edition, but none of them existed when I was last in Japan a few years ago. And I may have left some aspects of Japanese culture behind, but apparently not this one. I was really excited to give them a try!  (1,279 geeks have read this)

    A Tokyo Sunrise

    July 3, 2017 /

    Tokyo welcomed me back with open arms. It was virtually the same as I had left it. Most of my friends still lived there, most of the shops that I had loved were still there, even if some of them had changed locations. Most of all, the anime was still there. (1,277 geeks have read this)

    In the Park Hyatt Tokyo, you are…

    June 10, 2017 /

    Well, I mean, I’m not! Your mileage may vary. Japanese and me are old friends, anyway.  The staff also spoke English pretty well, at least the times that I spoke to them in my native tongue, so there’s that! I actually chose this title because the Park Hyatt Tokyo was the hotel that was used in the movie Lost in Translation. How cool is that? I love movie sites! This trip marked the first time that I ever stayed in a hotel in Tokyo (I had never needed to when I had my own place!), and they didn’t disappoint in most fronts! I stayed at the Park Hyatt for the second portion…

    Enjoying ourselves at Tokyo Disneyland and GET SOME INSULATION, JAPAN!

    February 19, 2017 /

    I’m making so many decisions back here to make life easier and better, and just overall more geared toward my true self, you know? But just bear with me, guys… right now, it’s picture time! Tokyo Disneyland was cold. Coooooooold cold cold! I  moved away from Japan because of constant cold like this. It was/is really hard to live in such frigid temperatures when the houses are not insulated but that’s actually perfectly acceptable to most (crazy) people there so nothing changes. Every Fall, Winter, and Spring that I lived in Japan, I wanted to scream: “It doesn’t have to be this way!! Demand insulation! Don’t just go with the status quo when there…
