Creamy What?
Jon found these in the grocery store last night. Of course we had to get them.
Makes me giggle.

Landmark Tower
reference note: The Landmark Tower is the tallest building in Japan.
I was in the landmark tower today, so i figured I may as well walk around its mall for a bit and see what’s around. It looks like the port of yokhama was holding some sort of… event. There was a concert in the middle of the mall! It seemed like the people on the stage were kind of a big deal – there were tons of people around clapping and singing along. Neat.
Woah. This is the first time I looked *up* in landmark tower. This mall is… huge.
Feeling slightly overwhelmed, I decided to sit down for a cup of coffee and read a few pages of my book. On the top floor, kind of tucked away, I found a place called “Giraffe” – it was an “around the clock cafe”. “ooookay”, I thought, “maybe it’s open early? open late?”. No no. Those punny japanese were telling me that it was *around* the *clock*. The clock being referenced was Cosmo Clock 21, which I believe is the largest timepiece in the world.
It was a great view, a much needed jolt of caffeine, and a great sanctuary in the middle of madness.
What kind of stores are at this giant monstrosity that is the Landmark Tower Mall? I’m glad you asked. Rachel… here’s your coach store. The thing was huge. I couldn’t fit it all in the photo (it extends more to the left). Lots of high end stores, etc. I can’t imagine how the japanese have all this discretionary income when *carrots* are $2 each.

Hello! Some of you, I know, are DYING to send us something.
Like, for instance… if you live on Harvard avenue and you happen to have a french press sitting in the cabinet that you just *know* a misplaced coffee addict has left behind (despite her better judgement). You know. If you *wanted* to send that french press, this is where you would send it:
Michelle or Jon Eggers
PSC 450 Box 456
FPO AP 96346-0446
Here’s the scoop… This is a naval post box, which I believe means that it costs about as much to send things to us as it would to send them anywhere else in america. There shouldn’t be any crazy, international postage fees.
