Trip to Sendai
We traveled to Sendai two weeks ago to meet up with daddy's family to remember the unexpected passing of Uncle Shunya in 2005. This year, M managed to not dance to the beat of the shrine drums during the ceremony but still couldn't help herself from swaying a little and shrugging her shoulders to the rhythm.
Two weeks after, M still talks incessantly about her favorite cousin Kanata.
Here was our trip, in photos. Please click on the photos themselves to see the bigger version.
During our journey, we made a pit stop at an R&R called "Minori." Now what are the odds of that?? M's name is not written the same way in Japanese though.
2-year-old Minori gets along with 6-year-old cousin Kanata.
And it's not difficult to see why.
Our dinner on the second evening at the ryokan. A surprise birthday cake awaits unsuspecting Aunty Sanae! She is sitting on Minori's left.
M didn't look very happy when we had to say goodbye on the third day. Here's a photo mosaic of the kids with their grandparents and grandaunt because there isn't a single photo in which EVERYONE looks at the camera.

she looks different everytime. anyway she looks good with this hat and she looks more `hafu` in these pictures
yeah, she looks like half-mat salleh in the hat. very pretty! :)
i get a lot of comments like that from the japanese. they think i'm the japanese, and my husband is mat salleh! how?!
M has grown so much, and agree with them, she looks half mat salleh :)
how come she looks like half mat salleh? what happened?? i think if we get more input like that (we get that from the japanese mothers too), m's dad may insist on a DNA test!
