Mr. Kaizer and I headed down to Imabari in Ehime prefecture on the island of Shikoku to visit some friends.  (If I were a more clever blogger, and if it wasn’t currently past 11 pm, I would insert a fancy-shmancy link to a Google Map.  But no such luck today.)  Our friends live very near the ocean in this lovely town rich in maritime history.  It also has a castle.  And who doesn’t love a castle?  (This particular castle had historic samurai suits of armor.  Totally cool, but I know that if one of those guys came running at me with a sword that I would probably definitely make a stinky mess in my lil’ ‘ol panties…but I digress.)

Despite the awesomeness of the castle, we were there to visit our delightful Kaizer Kompadres – the castle was just a bonus.  M & Y used to live in our neighborhood in Tokyo before moving to Imabari nearly one year ago.  But the terrible part was that we hadn’t seen them since they moved.  *sniffle!

We had fun visiting historic sites and all, but the best part of the vacation was definitely spending time with M & Y.  They’re wonderful people!

Can’t wait to see them again soon!

May life continue to inspire you,

Miss Kaizer
