MARCH 2005

Mar 4th - It really snowed today!!  The first photo is looking out of our dining window, those are $400,000 Lamborghini's sitting out there in the snow.  The Lamborghini and Audi dealership is just behind us.

Mar 5th - Went to a park and met an American family who have been here 1 week, they are here for 3 years.  Their 7 year old boy had exactly the same coat as Aidan.

Mar 21st - First cherry blossom tree is Tokyo.  In a couple of weeks we will get some great photos of all the tree like this.  It's not often you walk down the street and see your lounge-room on a billboard!!  At Sunshine City shopping mall in Ikebukuro, monkey act was pretty good.

Mar 26th - Took Aidan to the Dr. today, he hasn't been able to get rid of his infection. The International Clinic is just up the road and they were excellent.  The very old Doc. has a photo of every kid he treats on his wall.  Amazingly there was one up there with him, his nurse and Michael Jackson.  Three times he has treated Michael when he is Tokyo, they go to the hotel to him.  I thought Michael might prefer to go to his office to check out the photos of the kids....he he...Aidan will have his photo up there now, for the next time we have to go.

Other photo is Ikebukuro, just another busy area of Tokyo.

Mar 27th - Easter Sunday.  Japan don't celebrate Easter and so the Easter Bunny probably had some problems getting eggs.  Lucky he could pick up a few other things along the way and Aidan left a snack for him.  We had to have our own little Easter afternoon tea celebration.
