Books, botanizing, birdies, and borders
{.asset-media-link} I’ve found the birdie dance photos and the botanizing posts to be a bit blasé, so although there have still been a lot of both, I have not felt any need to document those exploits here.

It's been a lot of great trips
{.asset-media-link} I flew a few times in April, and finally reached 106 flight miles on United. It would have happened sooner if they hadn’t stopped flying to Bangkok, but so it goes.

A February Miscellany
Without any golf reports to report, or unsolicited advice to dispense, this will instead be a miscellany. {.asset-media-link} Where to begin? Perhaps sunrise, day, and night views of Niagara Falls would be good.

I love the Mediterranean in spring
{.asset-media-link} This, of course, is not the Mediterranean. But with such a view, one could be in Italy or Spain. If you are looking for some fine food and a nice ambience near Kamakura, check out タベルナ ロンディーノ.

Consular matters
To explain the recent lacuna here: I’ve been writing a lot, and studying a lot, and as I was rearranging some documents today various passport photos fell out, and visa application documents dropped to the floor, and I remembered that I’ve been especially busy with consular matters.

In which everything was concluded to the satisfaction of everybody
{.asset-media-link} I refer, of course, to a week of farewell parties – soubetsukai (送別会). It is rather late in the year for a shinnenkai, and much too early for a bonnenkai, but it was a fine time for soubetsukai in Ishigaki, Fukuoka, and Tokyo.

Too Full of Adventure to be Briefly Described: 2
In the midst of a trip to Japan, I took a trip to Tokyo. It was a windy day, and it was a bit of a construction site, and I was happy to have the hard hat until I discovered that so many of the other people at this meeting were not wearing one.

Of Kujira and Other Research
I would normally make a golf report at this time, but with just three rounds in the past two months, in three different countries, without any birdies, let’s just say that my game is in a research phase.

Extraordinary In-room Accessories
I’ve been going through some accumulated papers, maps, receipts, name cards, foreign currency, the types of things that one typically accumulates during travel, and that at some time must be organized, filed, and purged, as the case may be.

Of Air Travel, Avalanche Warnings, and Octopus Salad
Recently, I’ve been enjoying the delights of air travel. In addition to the scores of flights I’ve taken in economy class, I’ve had the chance to check out the C class service of Thai Airways on their A380, the onboard lounge on the Emirates A380, and the 787 (before the grounding) on a trans-India flight.
