May 1 2014 ~ We made the decision that we would be happier with LESS

 June 1 2014~

We start downsizing in order to save money and lighten our load.

January 21 2015~ We leave Victoria, British Columbia,

Ishigakijima bound!

January 23 2015~ Kabira Bay Ishigakijima Okinawa

We ARE finally here!

Everything we had worked so hard for was finally in our hands.

January 28 2015~ We found our own place! Haha just kidding.

Do we take it? Yes or No

Choices were very limited so, YES we will take it! (we moved in that day.)

 
We met some of the locals.

And also made new friends!

                                                                             

                                    It is amazing and wonderful how quickly kids can adjust.

                                        Mid February we found a small island attached to our own.      

                                                                "CAT ISLAND"  (Southern Gate)

We soon brought one home:)

 We named her Lotus, Lotus was ill. She slept for two days. We realized how desperate the island was for volunteers and foster homes. So we signed ourselves up and became a part of  

Shippo No Kai

translated it means The Organization Of Tails

Since Lotus we had three dogs and another cat.
All of which found permanent homes, the kitty moved with us to Kansai and his name is Simba!
