We went to our apartment today to take some measurements to see if we could upgrade to a king size bed and still have enough room to walk in our bedroom and open the closet doors. We met our realtor and his co-worker. The co-worker is interesting because we met her at the "Newcomer's Brief" we had to attend when we first arrived on island. When Miki met us at the apartment the first time to show it to us he had mentioned that she had wanted us to be HER customers because sometimes Japanese people get a "feeling." She had gotten this feeling about us and wanted to see us again so she tagged along for the measuring. Maybe Japanese people really do get a "feeling" because Colton and this lady really hit it off. He was smiling and playing with her face while she held him (which she insisted upon). She was very sweet.
We decided we just barely will have enough space for a king size bed, but now are unsure that the couch we bought will fit through the front door. Miki and his co-worker said sometimes they have to hoist it up over the balcony. On the 4th floor this will sure be a treat. If this happens I WILL take pictures. All in all a pretty uneventful day if you could say that. We did not spend more than 1 hour in the room all day and still didn't get that much accomplished thanks to the Marine Corps and their wonderful sense of organization. I'll fill you in on if and how we got our furniture into our teeny tiny Japanese apartment.
