		<description><![CDATA[Every Wednesday evening I have to work outside the city in a small town called Tagajo.  Basically it&#8217;s a suburb of Sendai, but it&#8217;s also home to many factories for big companies like Mitsubishi and Sony.  I walk through the main entertainment area on my way to work, so I thought I&#8217;d keep trying out [...]]]></description>

On mornings I go running, I take the train to work.  The station is right next to my place, and the station I get off at is like 50 feet from my office entrance.  The train I take is on the Senseki Line, which goes from Sendai all the way out to Ishinomaki [...]]]></description>

Friday was a national holiday in Japan, Shunbun no hi (春分の日), also known as Spring Equinox.  I needed to buy some duct tape, and tools to dismantle my home gym as the packing slowly rounds into form.  I figured I&#8217;d also make it out to Wakuya and check out the remains of its [...]]]></description>

Two days ago Kyoko and I took the drive west out to Onikobe, an area near the Akita/Yamagata/Miyagi border.  Probably known best for its terrible ski hill, Onikobe is also home to many hot springs (onsen).  While nearby Naruko Onsen gets most of the hype, being accessible by train and a popular place to view [...]]]></description>

On our drive home from an onsen in Onikobe this afternoon we came upon this little fella sitting on the side of a road.  Huddled up in a little ball, we weren&#8217;t even sure if he was alive or not until we parked and got out to take a closer look.  Sensing our approach, the [...]]]></description>

After searching all day in the freezing cold last Monday, I think, I hope that we&#8217;ve found our new apartment in Sendai.
Last month I was offered a transfer from Furukawa (population 40,000) to Sendai (population 1,000,000).  I think I accepted even before my area manager finished the sentence.  It&#8217;s not that I dislike [...]]]></description>

Spent a cold, dreary Monday afternoon in Sendai.  Our mission: to find an apartment.  Our goal: to find Northern Japan&#8217;s only Wendy&#8217;s restaurant.
After visiting Tokyo last weekend and being constantly reminded of all the lovely unhealthy restaurants (Burger King, Wendy&#8217;s, Subway) that we are lacking in Tohoku, the hamster started running, and I found the [...]]]></description>
