Monday, November 25, 2013. The Latest from Tohoku. Back in 2011, Carol and I and countless other people in Japan dropped everything to help CRASH get going as a response to the triple disaster in Tohoku. Approaching three years since the disaster, CRASH is still at work in the area, and here's a video report:. Https:/ www.facebook.com/photo.php? Doug and Carol Woon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Old Technology, Older Theology. Years ago, on a trip to Nagasaki we passed this derelict plane, and it was interesting to read a blog post about it. It was even more interesting to read why the plane has been kept all these years. In Praise of the Airplane to Heaven. Doug and Carol Woon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Woon Tribune: Lunch after Worship

http://woonjapan.blogspot.com/2015/07/lunch-after-worship.html

Friday, July 24, 2015. The typical church lunch in Japan is curry rice, which only involves one pot and a rice cooker. The curry is nothing like what they serve in the subcontinent, but it is comfort food. While we did do the traditional potluck for the Loves' farewell (see post below), our spur of the moment choice on a sunny day is the terrace at Triton Square, and food from the food court, or the convenience store or grocery store, which both sell obento. Doug and Carol Woon. See You Next Year!

Friday, July 25, 2014. Our best wishes to the fishermen of Watari-cho, Miyagi, Japan! Survivors of the 2011 tsunami are reaining their livelihood thanks to partnership with Food for the Hungry (japan and Canada) and the Christian and Missionary Alliance in Canada. Helping them make the switch to sardine fishing, these families have been provided new, specialized nets, floats, ballasts and more to get them back on the water and proud to be providing for their families once again.

Tuesday, April 7, 2015. Out Our Front Window. If you look up "older posts" at the bottom of the page and go back a few years you'll see how I bragged about our old neighbourhood, Harumi. Sailing ships, zeppelins, you name it, we had it there. Now we live about a 15 minute bicycle ride and three bridges east of there, and looking out our window on the 10th floor we look down on the Sumida Shipyard. This is the "Kachidoki" (the name of a neighbourhood just north of Harumi), a brand new fireboat. So on our ...

Saturday, March 8, 2014. While we had record snow in Tokyo, people in the mountains had impossible levels of snow in a country that usually doesn't have to deal with heavy snow that lasts for weeks. The Japanese Self Defense Force has been mobilized because of earthquake and of course the massive 2011 tsunami, but this year they were mobilized because of snow. Doug and Carol Woon. With the "Polar Vortex" making headlines all over North America, it's hard to talk about snow in Tokyo, but we managed to get...

Monday, March 31, 2014. I've been attempting to improve my Japanese listening skills by watching various Japanese programs and movies online. When there's translation it makes it much easier to confirm that I heard what I thought I heard. When the speaking is rapid fire, I have to stop, go back, listen again, and gradually discern what was said. Doug and Carol Woon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
