Hello everyone! You can breathe easy now, as you can see we made it safely to our hostel in Osaka (well, technically it's Fukushima, which is part of Osaka). We are on the fourth floor here at the J-Hoppers Hostel and boy is it a lot warmer than I thought it would be! Could have been all the running around with luggage, too. Should have practiced that with Helen Rindsberg's suitcase races: guaranteed to get you prepped for running around Japan with luggage! Anyw...

So, we're deciding whether we like this blog setup or Google's Blogger better for when we go to Japan. Heck, we will probably be having lots of fun in Japan, we might never update it! So, this is basically just a test post. We're still here in Indiana, 7 weeks away from our trip to Japan. 5 weeks away from moving into our first home. 2 days away from GenCon. Wow, so much stuff going on! We're super lucky, that's all I can say!
