I still haven't gotten used to the ease of having wheels. Last night, Jaclyn and I worked out at the pool a town over (to the left... ok yes I am directionally impaired), then picked up Danielle and trekked up to the Holiday You (a play on yu in Japanese, which means hot water) Onsen Resort for some Friday night girls' time in the tubs. We soaked outside surrounded by snow chatting about our parents' upcoming visits and other random topics. Afterwards we subjected ourselves to the bizarre movie, Jumanji before heading back to Misato. Life finally feels normal! We can get anywhere we want to! In the summer, we could probably bike to Danielle's or even to the pool (but I doubt at that point we would actually want to go in), but it is REALLY nice to be free to just pick up and go wherever! I think today we are going to explore a bit more and find another movie theater. Lord of the Rings 2 opens in Japan today, maybe we can squeeze in.
