Mum asked me to write down my experiences with having a child, so I did that, and for some reason carried on doing it even after she could no longer read them.

birth giving birth in Tokyo as a foreigner.

year one first year of child rearing

year two second year

year three third year, toilet training.

birth two detailing the birth of the second child

year four first turns 4, second turns 7 months. Eye operation.

year six first goes to school at 6, and second is 3.

Back in 1998 or so, I got quite sick, probably both from an ulcer and my gallbladder stones. I wrote a story about that, which I will move in here.

-Great wall of China - Bedaling
-Taking the train to the Great Wall of China...
-For the first 20 minutes, the train negotiates the Beijing suburbs, then it accelerates to around 80mph for a brief sprint to its first station stop.  After stopping briefly at this station, the train starts climbing at slow speed into the mountains to Badaling.  You start to see parts of the Great Wall as soon as you leave the station stop, so have your camera ready!  The train reverses direction at the stop before Badaling, so don't be surprised when this happens.  2 hours at the wall is plenty, so taking the 09:33 from Beijing out and the 15:22 from Badaling back, or the 13:19 out and 19:40 back all work fine.  If you want to return earlier, there are also regular buses back to Beijing.
