To bring you this very important announcement!
So amidst all of our new baby, trans-atlantic flights, birthday parties, doctors appointments and quality time with friends and family that I am slowly catching up on- we were also busy bidding on our next post!!!
SO, without further ado…
(for those of you who aren't our facebook friends
-This city is arguably (depending on how you define the parameters) the largest city in the world!- *it wins for the most densely populated metropolitan area in the world*
-This city and country have delicious food that is loved the world over.
-They hosted the 1964 Summer Olympics and are currently bidding on the 2020 Summer Olympics
-There are beaches, mountains, mainlands and islands to visit
-They have famous fruit trees-3000 of which were given to the United States as a gift
-They have their own Disneyland!
-There is a large tower in the city designed to look just like the Eiffel Tower, but it is painted white and orange
-They are home to a reigning monarchy-which is the oldest continuous hereditary monarchy in the world
-It is home to the most extensive urban railway network in the world! (no car needed:)
-It is one of the 3 financial "command centers" of the world. New York, London, AND…
-They love baseball here, which is a huge bonus for us
-They have beautiful "tea gardens", as well as tiny stress reducing gardens for your home or office- hint: name of those gardens rhymes with: Hen
-Also home to a very famous activity that is loved by youth and adults worldwide. hint 1: had an episode of "Friends" revolving around it. hint 2: wax on, wax off
-Numerous feature films have been filmed in the city, and it is featured in many others
including the new Cars 2 which my boys are thrilled about!
So if you still haven't guessed it your last clue is that apparently our family has a thing for very simple design graphic on a red and white flag…
and the winner is….
TOKYO, JAPAN!!!
summer 2013
we are thrilled with this assignment, and can't wait to see what Japan has in store for us.
Noah will also need language training, so we are excited to spend a year or so back in DC as well-
