Hello. I am new here. I am from Los Angeles and I am married. I have been to Japan twice to visit my wife's family in Tochigi Prefecture. If you have not yet been to Nikko, I suggest you visit there. It is beautiful.
AHHH, lucky man, get to travel to Japan and a beautiful wife as a tour guide. Hope you find plenty here to interest you and your wife. Glad you found JREF, post often & enjoy!
Greetings from the Japan Alps tornados28 !! Welcome !! I am a bit new here too, am with an usually cute, sweet little Japanese country girl too. I've never been to Nikko, but have seen many pictures from there and have heard about the overly bold monkeys there. I'd love to go someday, and probably will. If you ever get a chance to drop down to our neck of the woods--Nagano--please let me know. You've got a base camp here at my place; I'm close to all the biggies. Hope to hear more from you.
