Welcome to Travel Japan Now, a review, in pictures and words, of various destinations traveled over the years with my native-born Japanese wife.

Every year we travel from the west coast of the United States to a new area of Japan that we wish to explore.

Here we'll share with you what we have found through verse and pictures, all with the intent to open a door to you, and possibly stir you to Travel Japan Now.

So far our travels have been limited to the main (largest) island of Honshu which supports the major cities of Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaska, Kobe, Kyoto, Hiroshima, and Gifu.

Gifu? (That's a plug for my wife's parents home.)

Over time we paln to visit Hokkaido and Okinawa, so join us for many years to come.
