Hello All,
I joined a couple days ago and still am trying to figure my way around here. My name is Darleen Shizuyo (Ishihara) Alkhalili. My only connection to Japan is my ancestry but I am third generation Japanese-American. I do have relatives living in Japan..Hiroshima and Fukushima . I don't speak the language nor do I read it though I know a word or two here and there but not enough to survive if I lived over there. I don't really have any desire to visit there but I find the history fascinating.
