Saying Goodbye....



And just like that, the Mendes leave Japan....Friendship is a double edged sword in the navy. You befriend the most amazing people, knowing that you will only be together for a limited time.

It's funny, but it doesn't get easier to say goodbye.
It's comforting to know that our nomadic lifestyle has allowed us to enrich our lives with good people...Lis, you were right. It's easier to leave than be left behind...

Flor! Jennifer Shipley passed this along to me and told me you were living in Japan! I'm going to be there soon - I'm coming for a quick visit to Tokyo to visit a friend. I'll be there end of March. Email me when you get a chance: danielle.labrie@gmail.com. Its so funny reading your blog - and you look exactly like you did in highschool, lady! You must still be getting carded :-)
