Lee - I signed up for something called Rustic Picnic at 'The Farm" at Petropavlovsk.
I am disappointed that all the tours in Osaka seem to be sold out. I should be packing that day anyway. Probably will be pooped by then. Doesn't look like I'll get to Kyoto this trip. Have a fairly busy tour schedule for the other Japan stops. I'm working on Alaska tomorrow, although I am doing the Russian Tea thing in Kodiak. I'm very much into all things Russian. Wish I could also do the wood carving. Too many things to see, so little time.
