Links

I haven't figured out how to add a "links" section to this page just yet, but I'm working on it.

For now, here are some links you might want to check out:

This page has a good map of Japan, so you can see better where I'm living in relation to Tokyo, etc.
On the left side, highlight the region of "Chugoku" and you'll see my region of Honshu (the largest of the main Japan islands) fill in red. Then select "Shimane", which is my prefecture, and you'll be able to check out the area around my town. On the main map of Shimane, the pointer to Izumo Shrine is pointing at my town of Taisha. I live about a ten-minute bike ride from the impressive IzumoTaisha shrine.
