I am currently at my place here in San Jose, California (San Francisco Bay Area)! We arrived here late Sunday evening after staying at my family’s house in Los Angeles for a few hours.

The weather has been incredibly beautiful since we arrived here in California July 27^th. I had an incredibly enjoyable stay by the ocean in Carlsbad, California! Once the fog rolled away each morning there was an incredibly beautiful view from our living room. I really like staying at that resort with my family and it will be great to return there next year for our annual stay!

Even though I have lived here in San Jose for over 15 years these days I feel more at home in Itabashi-ku! Still, I am certain that I will enjoy each and every precious moment of my stay here in San Jose!

Please take care, stay positive, have a great day and an enjoyable summer!
