Marc and I are registered with the US Embassy in here in Tokyo, in case there would be an earthquake or some such and they would need to know of any US citizens who live in Japan. As a result we get an electronice newsletter each month with various topics about living in Japan, foreign travel, etc. The latest one had a link to a State Dept. webstite that gives instructions on how to register any foreign travel with the State Dept. before your trip. I was wondering if any of you have ever done this when you have traveled overseas? Has it ever helped to have had your trip registered?
