The First Post

Looks as though I should have named this 'another Dan in Japan.' I was going for DanInJapan but it seems some fellow has already beaten me to the name. No harm done though.
Anyway the idea here is for me to keep a blog of my trip to Japan. Seeing as to how I'm there yet, I'm not sure how frequently I'll be updating. Biweekly sounds do-able. I'll try to make this mildly informative at points too and include some culturally relevant anecdotes.
Oh and lastly, if you do in fact read over this. Leave comments.

Spent 4 weeks in Japan after WWII at Yokouska Navy Base. Was on a U.S. Troop Transport. Our ship was turned over to the Japanese, we were taken off the ship, a Japanese crew was placed on board. The ship was then to be used to visit various islands in the Pacific where the Japanese would not surrender to the U.S. troops. The Japanese crew was given the task to convince the Japanese soldiers the war was over and they should surrender to the crew and be returned to Japan and their homes. Thought you might be interested in this. Have a great experience and keep us posted. Love you, Grandpa Peterson
