It's been too long since I've been on the road! But the next adventure is on the horizon.  Cambodia and Japan - here we come!! I'll be flying to Atlanta on March 8th to meet Ginger and we'll head across the world the next day.  Come with us and explore the Hindu-Buddhist temple complex of Angkor Wat, and all that Cambodia has to offer.  Then, continue on to Japan to visit Ginger's son and his family in Nagoya.

 Tuesday, March 25, 2025 I'm feeling nearly human and consume the convenience store sandwich that Ginger and Sachiko brought home for me last night.  A big step!

Sachiko II has a car and no one has told her that she's not allowed to drive.  It is a treat to avoid the forced march! This old coffee shop hasn't changed since we were here all those years ago and when I make a kind of sign for iced coffee, the counterman grins and remembers me from last week. A lot of important conversations have happened here, I'll bet!  And there's another one today. And, oh my, there's food.  Toast and red-bean paste and soup and a half of a banana and a salad and a hard boiled egg!  I can get down everything but the HBE;  my tummy just won't stretch that far!

 Wednesday, March 26, 2025 and Thursay, March 27th Well today's the day.

Sachiko was saving this special cake for our final breakfast! They want me in the photo, too!! Photos and hugs and we all pile into the van (is it an SUV?  I'll never get it straight!) and away we go. At the airport the kids are starving, of course, and so we head to the food court.  Along the way there's a small piano set up for anyone to play and there's a tiny girl really giving it what for!! She's so good!  And there are ninjas above the ticketing counters!!  Ah, but back to the food court where nearly everyone chooses some...
