You better believe it!

Guess who rode a bike in Tokyo?
Guess who rode an Electric bike?
Guess who almost ran into taxi...or four?
Guess who almost ran over a woman's foot..or people's bodies in general?
Guess who almost became master of the "weave"?
Guess who held up the sidewalk for basically a hour while turning her bike around?
Guess who rode super close to the guardrail so that cute, small, Japanese cars could still drive on the road?
Guess who wore a "I <3 NY" t-shirt to look more "American" so people would "understand" her incapabilities of riding a bike?
Guess who weaved through small spaces between buildings?
Guess who rode a bike at night time?

Amazing. Experience.

Humorous story:
Amy teaches an adorable Japanese girl. We had conversation time, and we were asking questions.. We were talking about favorite memories and I said that mine was Thanksgiving, because it's the best family-time ev-er. Then, feeling really confident and curious about Japanese tradition, I asked her if they have Thanksgiving...

>>Clearly Thanksgiving is about Pilgrims and Indians...
I blame it on my jet lag.<<
