Japan Deja Vu

Well, it seems like we never left this place, but we did, for a bit.  We are now back in Hiroshima playing for the same team Mike did last year, the Carp.  We have 1 new foreign player but 4 returning players, including Mike.  It is really nice having the Lewis family in our apartment building this year, it makes things easier for play dates and just having each other around.  The kids started school on Monday and love it.  It is as though they never left.  They still talk about their friends from LA but they are reunited with some of their friends they left last year.  Mike is busy working out and Spring Training games have began.  He has pitched once and will pitch again tomorrow. He is doing well, so we hope that he continues down that path and stays healthy.  I finally finished putting away all 19 bags/boxes/suitcases that we brought here, and instead of our place looking like an apt it looks like Target.  I prepared thoroughly this time.  We appreciate everyone who has been following Mike and our family, and I promise to post pictures soon.  I forgot to bring the camera to the field the other day.  Have a great week and I will update you with pictures and pitching this week.
