What a gorgeous morning!!! The sunshine, cool breezes, and bustling activity in Playa Vista, a neighborhood in the city of Los Angeles, has inspired me to blog about our trip :-) As long as I have internet access in Japan ;-)
Exiting LAX last night, the first thing to greet me was a cool 63 degree breeze with no humidity...why Florida, WHY??? God, can we work out a deal with the currents please? JP just gave me a wonderful explanation and Japan is going to be exactly like Florida...damn.
The plane ride flew by, but I'm worried the flight to Tokyo will not seem so quick ;-) Poor Adam is already annoyed by my Small Potatoes song. I told him he can blame Marcie ;-) If you're curious about Small Potatoes here's a link. But be warned, the song will be stuck in your head FOREVER!
Not sure what the plan for today is, but whatever it is I know I will enjoy. I have a feeling Japan won't be so relaxing since we will be on more of a schedule.
The boys are sitting with me playing a game I could never hope to understand. There are hot pink cards with chameleons.
"What is this game called?" Adam answers.
"Colorado?" Adam answers again.
"Coloredo?" Adam answers again, but JP holds up the card.
Ah. "Coloretto." Got it. And yet I still don't ;-)
Laurel just got out of the shower and is doing her make-up. When you take a shower in JP and Heather's bathroom, that has carpet that they want to tear out, Moet is your buddy. He is a very old kitty, but so cute :-) Orion is adorable too, and more lovey than Moet. But I think it's the 10 year age difference between them ;-)
The Olympics are on JP's theater screen behind me. It's tennis and one of the teams is Brazilian. Brazilians and tennis??? Normally I associate them with soccer. How close minded of me. But I can say that because my best friend is Brazilian ;-) No, but seriously, she is.
Side note: Laurel has amazing mental math skills and JP stands for Jean-Philippe, just in case you were wondering.
At the market this morning, I imagined buying some of the gloriously bright and beautiful sunflowers and bringing them home to put on the breakfast table in my house in California that doesn't exist. Just in my imagination :-) I just wish it wasn't so expensive here. But a lot of people make it work, 37.7 million to be exact. According to JP's smart phone ;-)
We walked to a coffee shop where I bought my coffee and oatmeal with bananas, raisins, and blueberries (Laurel just gave me my first bite of plum) I know your jaws are dropping if you know me. FRUIT!!!! I want to stay regular on this trip ;-)
Well I think this is all for now. To sum it up, California's weather is awesome, Florida's sucks, and I want to poop on a regular basis.
Yep, that's it.
Laters baby ;-)
