Wow, that's really cool! And you got a lot of warning too! Clearly the Air Force is more organized than the Army. :D

That's the cool part of Japan. LOL!

I was stationed in Misawa from August 2000-August 2003. Yokota is near Toyko. We went down there a lot and went to Toyko Disneyland, and DisneySea. Very fun.

One thing you guys have to do, its up north on the northern island, its the Sapporo Snow Festival. We never went and I regret it. Its every February.

How fun, Jami! One of the things that I do wish we'd had a chance to do was travel with the military. DH's family is all military, but he chose not to go that route, but I think I would've liked the nomad live of a military family. Have fun!

AllieP 03-03-2009 04:05 PM

Wow, that's so exciting!!

crystalbird 03-03-2009 04:06 PM

Wow! How exciting for you!

*Kelly* 03-03-2009 07:33 PM

I spent 5.5 years of my young life on Yokota.. I have the most incredible memories and experiences from there!! Congrats!!

Melissa Bennett 03-03-2009 09:01 PM

Oh how exciting!!! That should be a fun tour!! We are hoping to hear soon of our next assignment. I hate waiting for that.

Nonna2Dreja 03-03-2009 09:11 PM

Glad that your husband got the Transfer he put in for AND that you are so happy about it....:thumbup:

Dottie 03-03-2009 10:31 PM

Wow Jami, how exciting!!!!

pbumbaca 03-04-2009 08:07 AM

That is fantastic! I'm jealous of all the yummy sushi you will have at your disposal! I love that all you military girls can pick up and go anywhere and we never lose touch too!

sjford0419 03-04-2009 09:58 AM

How exciting!! My dad was stationed at Yokota and I went to school there! My brother actually has orders to go there this summer (he's in Germany now!) So cool!

donnelsl 03-04-2009 10:39 AM

That's awesome!! We're hoping our next assignment is overseas as well. I hope the move this fall goes smoothly!!
