Such a blessing

Even though I worked only for a short while at Wakaba Co, i was able to encounter some wonderful inspiring people from my work. ive kept in touch with really about a handful and its been nice having some aquaintances in japan. and then, my old co-woker from Japan is here visiting! only for a short trip but its nice i can show her "myself" in my own soil and being myself. And i was able to show her my "hometown" not japan, but HERE! =D

*Cheesecake factory - she was shocked at the food's portions in the US. yes, america is all about super size. haa, welcome.

the pleasant Malibu Winery after the windie road up in the mountains. it was real nice.

*checking out the Redondo Pier for some crazy steamed seafood action. I think Kaori-san had the life-time's worth of crabs to eat. haa. this sea urchin was ridiculous!! =D Love it in Redondo.
