I volunteered to be asked five questions by Michele, because obviously I'm crazy about questions! Sorry it took so long, Michele, I know you asked me more than two + weeks ago!

1. You and I are going to Japan together. You are only allowed to show me five places/things. What do you pick? First of all, let's say we'd going in fall:

- a. We'd try to climb Mt. Fuji!
- b. We'd go to Shinjuku, where there are just so many things to see and do!
- c. We'd visit the castle that has "nightingale" floors; when you walk on the floors they make bird sounds, which was used to stop enemies.
- d. We'd climb Tokyo Tower, just a tiny bit taller (deliberately) than the Eiffel Tower, for a magnificent view of Tokyo.
- e. Finally, I'd bring you to one of the Iron Chef restaurants for a meal you'd never forget!

2. What is your favorite childhood memory? Summertimes with my cousins down the Cape (Cape Cod to you folks not from around here)!

3. Hopefully I will make it up to Boston sometime this spring/summer. Where will you suggest we meet up? At your hotel, so I can drag you all around Boston! Of course, I'd have to bring you to Newburyport, too, cause it's my favorite place in MA and I like to share :-)

4. What are you most looking forward to in Vegas? 1) Seeing all my friends; 2) Seeing the Cirque du Soleil show, Love!

5. What do you think is your best quality? My ability to never be bored.

DIRECTIONS FOR THE INTERVIEW MEME

1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by emailing you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
No More!!!

Place you missed on your trip to Japan ryoanji

Kyoto is a whole lot more than just treaties.

oooh Follow Up. It didn't register that you were going to "Love". Any show where the ushers have to chase the audience out of the foyer to stop them from dancing so they can close up at the end of the evening is not to be missed. I have a "Love" keyring from the gift shop and the CD for the show. If it ever comes out on video it's an immediate buy. The show, music, and audience "help along" was out of this world!!!!

I've been to Newburyport, but only for a regatta. So, I'm familiar with the Merrimac there.

And dude, I'm probably staying with my friend in NH.

That is so neat about the "nightingale floors"! I'd love to see Japan one day. :D
