Another snowstorm

 Pictures taken on my way back from my dentist's office, where I had my last maintenance visit.


NOTE: Preparations for our move are coming along well, in spite or maybe because of as series of goodbye parties at night (three out of the last four). Most of the paperwork is finished. We are waiting for the arrival of the final paperwork for renting our new apartment. In Japan they do a background check before you sign the lease. As soon as that is finished they will send it to us for a final signature. We will official start renting from March 20 but will not arrive in Fukuoka until the 22nd. Our household goods are scheduled to arrive at 2 p.m. and will will arrive from Tokyo during the morning. To save money we are taking the Shinkansen to Tokyo, staying overnight in a cheap hotel (called a business hotel by the Japanese) and then taking a discount flight to Fukuoka. We have bought beds and hopefully they will have already arrived, but if not, we will sleep on the tatami mats like most Japanese.
