Tucson Old Town - Old Western Village

  We went to one of the Tourist places in Tucson called " Tucson Old Town (Western Village )    last month.   This place was used in many movies and TV drama such as Clint Eastwood's Western cowboy movies ,  and also Little house on the prairie. I was curious to see it since I knew about it because Little house on the prairie is one of my favorite dramas. Also I love to see places that are like time slips. It was so much fun ! There was a Western cowboy show and we watched it. We were lucky to wear hats there because it was so sunny while watching the show. I remember this kind of building was in the little house on the prairie. Every 30 minutes, there were different types of shows such as dance show, etc.. besides cowboy show. But we preferred to walk around the place seeing many buildings so we only watched Cowboy show until the end. 

Wonderful gift from my Japanese relatives 2

We received another gift from my other relatives from Japan last month. These are several kinds of Japanese crackers ( called Osenbei in Japanese ), cookies , Japanese Seaweed ( Nori ),  good quality soy sauce.    Thank you very much to Uncle Sakae and Aunt Miyoko! I love all of them! They are my father's related Uncle and Aunt who are my father's youngest brother and his wife. I rarely met my father's  relatives since my father passed away (when I was 14 years old ), but when I got married, there was an opportunity to meet some of the relatives who were living in Tokyo area in Japan and they celebrated for our marriage.  and after I left Japan and started living in USA, I have been keeping in touch with them. Mainly,  my Aunts ( Aunt Takako and Aunt Miyoko ) have been writing to me. Both of them have no blood connection with me because they are my parent's brothers wives.   But I don't know why, I feel comfortable talking with them. Aunt Miyok
