Pass The Chopsticks

http://passthechopsticks.blogspot.com

We're a United States Navy (submarine) family stationed in Yokosuka, Japan. My husband spends a lot of time out to sea, so I venture out with our daughters (4 and almost 3) and sometimes with friends to new places. I post pictures, little tidbits about where we've been and try to keep things light and funny. Come see the sights and hear the sounds of Japan through our eyes!
