Granny Zuma's answers. There is no english food because english food is just potatoes and pies.
And no, they don't have delicious ice creams, they just have fish. We didn't get to see mount Fiji and yes, Honor is enjoying herself (apart from when she gets tired).
Granny's second comment I AMVERY JEALOUS OF YOU TRAVELING ON THE BULLET TRAIN. CAN YOU FIND ANY ENGLISH FOOD TO EAT? BATH BUN OR FISH AND CHIPS? I EXPECT THEY HAVE DELICIOUS ICE=CREAMS. I have always wanted to see Mount Fiji too How high is it? IS HONOR ENJOYING HERSELF? Love Granny Zuma
EYES IN THE WEST ARE WATCHING YOU. DID YOU GET GRANNY'S COMMENT? When you get tired of jellyfish take a bag of donuts onto the bullet train, look out of the window and enjoy the ride. Probably you'll be in Kyoto before you've eaten the last one. Uncle Blog
Knees please How are your knees after all this eating meals with your legs crossed? Actually it is important to get used to this when young, as the tendons will not stretch when you are grown up. It is the same with squatting. When Europeans squat they balance on their toes. But Asians squat with their whole foot on the ground. Again, you cannot train yourself to do this late in life because the tendons will not stretch.
And how are you with chopsticks? It is very important not to lose face by dropping something. We expect a demonstration when you get home.

Good question We are in Japan at the moment. Off to New Zealand tomorrow and then onto Canada (briefly) and the US (West Coast). Worth a blog entry or two! Andrew (boys in bed!)
Zoom Bros and the Bhudda So far so good....Japanese government pouring concrete in every direction as far as I can see in your picture. Any sacred mountains castles or cherry trees? UB
Hope you had a good flight! Hi All
How brilliant and what a great idea to keep in touch with everyone and let us know where you are. Looking forward to seeing the photos of your travels. Sam and Luke will be thrilled that they can keep in touch with you and they'll write a message soon.
Lots of love to all
Jo and Guy
Have a great trip.... ....we have just got back from Vancouver - when are you there? We were 8 hours behind in Canada! We recommend Stanley park to walk and bike in and go to the aquariam in and also there are lots of beaches there. (and a small water park)
Also granville island is great with a great food market and a special kids toy market! Also the space museum.
Gastown has nice restaurants eg Water Street Bistro and Yaletown too.
You need lots of change(no notes) to ride the buses. Jamie says eat a lot of ribs they are great! Mike says drink a lot of local beer(Andrew!) Trees coffee house does FANTASTIC cheesecake--Alex had some for breakfast yesterday....
Have a brilliant time we are very envious!
