On base, all holidays are celebrated pretty much the same way they would be in the states....though you can't set off fireworks at your house for New Year's or 4th of July, but they generally have festivals on base so that you can enjoy those things…
Hey Charity! I believe trick or treating is set from 6-8 on Kadena. I saw the flyer for the Hauned House on Foster at the PX, but I can't recall the times for it....I know it's happening tomorrow night for sure though.
Hi Catherine! I've never heard of anyone waiting longer than a month for base housing. I think they tell you the absolute longest timeframe just in case :) The housing is kind of what you make it. Some housing is newer or renovated, but a lot is sti…
My husband didn't need one either, he just travelled with his ID and orders and that was all he needed. I PCS'd with him to Japan and then to Italy and then to Florida with just a regular passport.....no one even mentioned a no-fee passport until I…
Go straight out gate 3 and follow the road down past Chibana housing, past Camp Shields, past the turn off for Kurashiki Dam and right before you hit 329 you'll see a veggie market on your left hand side. It's right across the street from a Coco's c…
I've been checking out this site for the last six months or so to get myself and my family excited about the move here. We've now been here almost two months and are really enjoying it! I've been married to my husband (Air Force) for 9 years and we have two daughters, ages 6 and 4. This is our fourth base, having been to Misawa (Japan), Aviano (Italy), and Eglin (Florida). I get to be a stay at home mom again now that we live overseas again and I feel really lucky! Basically, I love my family, I love to travel and explore, I am addicted to reading.....and I'm not that great at getting out there and making new friends....there I said it :) But I'm hoping this might be the first step to throwing myself out there.
Yep, I found it. Not sure how, but I did. Sofar it looks like a good place to hang out. I haven't seen anything negative yet. Thanks much for letting me know about this site!

The event has been moved to Saturday. I hope to see you there and I am sorry for the change.

Ok. She's taking her nap, and I'm going to go take a shower and tidy the kitchen. Then we'll head out when she gets up. I'm going to stop by the px as well, before the commissary, so we'll just be over there after I get all that done.
I keep falling for this trick- maybe I should leave a comment on her page too, but my last name used to be Daniels, so everytime I see "so-and-so left a comment for Jennifer D" I keep thinking "ooh! I've got a message!" But no dice. I'm not a D anymore! Eventually, I'll get it straight.
I am heading up to Kadena area Saturday, mid-morning. Let me know if you are still willing to sell me those stuffed animal holders! Would love to get them off your hands! ;-)
Hey- I was going to send you a message, but the message service on here is still down for whatever reason. Anyway- if you're not doing anything for dinner tonight (ie, not eating nachos again) Heather and I are supposed to be meeting up to go to that noodle place in American Village - the vending amchine/push button/automated whatever one. And then some Yogurtland afterwards. Also, I would call you, but I brilliantly left your number on my message board at home where I wouldn't lose it, but where it also doesn't do me any good.
I don't know why I laugh every time I see this pic, but I do. Something about Mark. There were a couple others of the girls that turned out. If you want them give me your email and I'll send them to you. I was going to send them to you in a message on here, but I didn't see that I could do that. Maybe I just wasn't looking hard enough.
