New Year's is the time to visit the car yards and collect your 'Fukubukuro' (Lucky Bag). They send out invitations with the New Year's cards and often have fun events going for the kids too. We had two places to visit, Yanase (the luxury used car-yard) and Honda. (They are actually next door to each other). We took two cars because the Yanase salesman wanted to see the car we ended up buying, even though we didn't get it through him.

Here we are at the car yard. Waiting for our treats...looking at the cars afterwards is fun too. Ludeen fell in love with the new BMW hatchback.

Time for a lottery...
Dad, 'Oh, look what I got!'...what was it again??January 6th 2008
On the 6th we went to church. After church we went to an Italian Restaurant in Sakai.
Here we are on the bridge at central Sakai.
Ken and I decided to walk to the top of the observation tower....it was 21 floors! Looking a little puffed???
