The tallest gaijin couple in Japan (that we know of...we haven't looked very hard) blogs about eating, working and playing. Our combined height is 12 foot 3, we hail from middle America and our new host town's claim to fame is a festival featuring men riding huge logs down a mountain. Oh yeah, takai means tall in Japanese (among other things). It's what we wish they would call us. What they actually call us is ookii (big).

5 Japanese proverbs
Fall down 7 times, get up 8.
10 men, 10 colors.
Clear sky, cultivate, rainy, reading.
The pheasant that keeps its mouth shut is least likely to get shot.
