http://bartotravels.blogspot.com/2009/04/nojiri-2.html
Places I've lived and visited. Thursday, April 23, 2009. The road didn't go to that cabin. We either had to hoof everything up from the bottom of the hill, or we had to drive to some point above the cabin and carry it down (the preferred way). Even water, we had to carry by bucket from the spring. well. Drinking water, anyway. There was a rain barrell of sorts to collect water from the roof for laundry and baths. The closest spring for this cabin was at the bottom of the hill, where the path met the grav...

Barto's Travels: Ramen and Gyoza in Waikiki
http://bartotravels.blogspot.com/2008/03/ramen-and-gyoza-in-waikiki.html
Places I've lived and visited. Monday, March 31, 2008. Ramen and Gyoza in Waikiki. 1 Ramen Ezogiku, 2146 Kalakaua Avenue. There was a queue to get in, and the clientele mostly Japanese. Well worth the wait. The specialty here is Sapporo style ramen. I got the Miso Ramen, and Nancy got the Yakisoba (fried noodles). We both got the set that came with four Gyoza and a small Fried Rice. Everything was as good as in Japan. The miso broth had a nice "zing" to it. Our second visit. Atom Feed for This Site.

Barto's Travels: May 2008
http://bartotravels.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Places I've lived and visited. Friday, May 30, 2008. Matsue. Early 1960s. I have were of being a kid in Matsue. On the coast of Shimane Prefecture. Near the Sea of Japan. The winters were cold there, and I remember walking down our sidewalk with the snowbanks over my head. I had the unique experience of growing up in Japan. I went over when I was six months old, and, with the exception of a Norwegian family, we were the only westerners for many miles. As a young boy, I had blonde hair. Links to this post.

Barto's Travels: November 2008
http://bartotravels.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Places I've lived and visited. Monday, November 24, 2008. Nojiri. Cold lake waters surrounded by high mountains. Magical summers. Cozy winters. It was the magic summer retreat of our childhood. We started going to Lake Nojiri. Soon after we moved from Matsue. The summers in Kansai. Were unbearably humid, and an escape to the mountains, living for a short time in a community of other expats, was just the prescription for our family to recharge and re-energize in preparation for the daily grind. May have e...

Places I've lived and visited. Monday, June 16, 2008. Matsue, early '60s (part 2), Learning Japanese. As I said in the first part of this post, we had a lot of Snow in Matsue.

Most of our friends were Japanese. We spoke English with our parents, and Japanese with our housekeeper and with the other kids in the neighborhood. I don't remembe...
