Our Oriental Adventure

In 15 days, my husband and I will be leaving our home in Stuart, Florida for 3 years in Japan. Beginning Sept. 18th, Allan will be working for the Dept. of Defense at the Yokosuka Naval Base, on Tokyo Bay. Our journey will include two weeks of family visits, good-byes to friends and sadly, handing over our two cats to our good friends, Bruno and Chris Ferraro.

Joey was born under our deck 17 years ago and filled our empty nest. After Chloe, his 13 year companion died, I brought home a cat I called Sophie. He was renamed Sammy, when our Vet told me that I was wrong about his gender. Leaving them is difficult for us. I hope they will be healthy and happy for a long time.

We are excited and nervous, but hope to have some wonderful experiences in Japan. Maybe you'll come for a visit. We'd love to see you there.

  2. Hey Allan and Liz - hope all is great! I e-mailed Allan a few days ago and haven't heard from him. He wants some meds and I need your address to send them. Take care, Charles
