    Enjoying Zipair food

    Enjoying In The Waiting by Kina Grannis

    Enjoying this prayer

    I pray blessings on the hands that prepared the food

    I pray for Japan in their logical nation wide spirit to turn to the Lord

    I pray Sendy…

    Pray what for her?

    I am just excited for her arrival in my next season

    I have not been this excited since the arrival of the Holy Spirit into my heart at my baptism

    I have seen all of her

    I have seen all of her obstacles breakable by Jesus

    I am excited to see it bloom into this kingdom of reality

    I am going to want to savor every moment

    For as long as I can

    Just like taking the smallest nibbles of my meal

    I do not need this food immediately in belly

    I have fasted for a whole day before

    I know going faster is not life or death situation

    So then be graced with the fact that

    Food does not need to taste Good

    God did it because of Love

    So enjoy it as long as you can

    *snatched thank Cheeto God

    For providing nourishment

    Well thank God for giving Cheeto the opportunity

    Thank Gala for nourishment

    Well the grocery store for providing it

    Well the delivery guy for bringing it from the factory

    Well the plantation that waters the trees

    Well God for the water and growing the tree and His ultimate providence

    *

    Snack all day to experience that grace all the time

    Realize it is a risk

    The more grace you invest

    The more you risk the consequences

    Of its laws

    If you eat too much salt you will thirst

    Too little and the flavor is bland

    Too much processed may contain allergens

    Such it is with nibbling on the knowledge of righteousness

  • 1 Japan travel reflection

    202602071215m7f6

    February midday Saturday travel is not busy

    Sewing project is a great travel activity

    Get $20 currency exchange as soon as you can

    Do not look for deals yet

    We got stuck in the station because we passed our stop

    Because of 60 yen…

    We had hundreds of US$

    That was useless in Shinjuku without currency exchange machines

    Not much English nor direction from firm security to not allow passage

    Now at the end of the trip:

    I understand we needed to merely jump on the train back one stop and freely walk out

    At the time:

    Had to beg a tourist and was willing to pay $20 (lowest denomination I had) to get out of the station

    Mercy was given freely

    After smooth walk and check in to hotel

    Simple curry

    Simply delicious
    Cozy (small) clean hotel sleep
    Early morning walk around city
    Traditional breakfast a la carte

    Lost my credit card along the way

    Paid via phone tap wallet

    Cat walk around city
    Coffee park stroll
    Rest In Peace Frosty

    Etiquette embedded in culture

    So meal respect was attempted
    Quality presentation and tasty
    Returned for a jet lag nap
    Quality dipping ramen
    Exploration of alley shops
    More morning walks
    My buddy with me and sharing to others
    Beat all US hotel breffis
    To Nagano!
    Such nice stations

    Unfortunately no ski rental in town

    Ryokan with onsen is lovely
    Could not figure out wifi
    Potentially busy
    Empty for this season
    Well kept temple
    Known for buckwheat soba
    Overflow niigata sake
    Must onsen

    Forgot the room photo!

    Comfortable floor tatame beds

    Morning walk was quiet
    More than Shinjuku
    Oyaki great breki
    Educating unplanned trek
    Shiga kogen half day
    Run 1
    To the top!
    1998 Olympics
    Returned just in time for sunset
    I like the normalcy of small owned shops
    Independent quality

    Onsen before bed

    Morning walk thru park by temple
    To Myoko-kogen!
    Day 2 Run 1
    Last run!
    Good timing since I lost my lift ticket memorabilia
    Awaiting bus ride back
    Pocket ski snack smooshed
