Today Yumi, Makoto, my parents and I will drive 1.5 hours to pick up Yumi’s parents. They are all excited about the adventure. This is their third time to visit us I believe.

We have plans to visit the Mouse in Orlando. Normally I don’t like rodents, but we think Makoto does.

Here are a few good vocabulary words suitable for today:

義父 gifu father-in-law

義母 gibo mother-in-law

寝不足 nebusoku not enough sleep

時差ぼけ jisaboke jet lag

ツーリストっぽい tsu-risutoppoi Like a tourist (or おのぼりさん onoborisan - a visitor from the countryside interested in all the sites of the big city)
