Welcome to our world!

My chinese name is Yin Ling and baby Minori's unofficial middle name is Yen. Both Yin and Yen mean swallow (as in the bird) in chinese. The same swallows that migrate to Malaysia in winter to escape the cold return to Japan when the weather begins to warm up. Like the swallows here, together with daddy, we make our trips between the two countries. Isn't it nice to have two places we can call home?

Sumo

Daddy got us tickets to watch sumo last week as my birthday prezzie. It's the most fun cultural experience I've ever had! Hugs and kisses to daddy!


An east-west combo: In our little box enjoying watching sumo and munching on Krispy Kreme (with compliments from Auntie Miyuki and Uncle Herbert from the day before).


M taking a break from doodling with her crayons to cheer the wrestlers on.


After sumo, what else do we have for dinner but chanko, apparently a favorite of the sumo wrestlers.

Hakuho wins this season and will be promoted to yokozuna -- sumo's highest grand champion -- in a couple of days (gee... I just realized what his real name is... Hakuho is definitely easier to say than Munkhbat Davaajargal!). The Mongolians are GOOD!
