My good Lad, your lovely new bride is certainly a keeper. What a lucky man you are. I expect an appropriate compliment for her would be, "she captured everything true to the concept of heritage and sense of style that is yours." Well done.

Hey there, Kilted Kiwi!

Good work! I really enjoy seeing your projects. They're inspiring! I wish I had the time to put into everything I wanted to make. Life does get in the way so I just have to work with what I can get.

I know exactly where you are. I lived in Nara for a lot of years and worked at a friend's pension over the holidays. I really loved the taste of the rice there. Fantastic with a little piece of salmon, otsukemono and a swig of miso soup. Yum!

Thanks so much for sharing!!!

Jon

Oooops, sorry! The friend's pension was up at the Myoko Kogen ski resort. I wonder if they (Pension 888) is still there.

Hi MacIllfhilidh

Thanks for the kind comments and when I was a young lad and a snowboarder I used to love going to Myoko Kogen Suginohara for that field had 10 km runs from the top of the mountain to the bottom. Which was awesome.
