I don’t know the first thing about gardening, but I would like to plant a couple plants, and keep my garden looking nice over the summer. Any hints or tips?

Any garden needs to have some preparation before anything should be planted. If you did not prepare a site–remove sod, ammedn the soil and till–perhaps you should try container gardening to begin with. Tomatoes are great to start with. They are easy and have great results within weeks.
Cherry tomatoes ripen quickly. Put one plant into a 10" pot in full sun. Water only when the soil begins to dry a bit.
Larger varieies will need staking and also a large pot–one plant into a 12" or 14" is good.
You can grow peppers as well.
In any case, starting small is far more rewarding when you are successful. If you jump in too quickly, you may become discouraged and give up too soon!

After you arrive by plane you can explore the country by airline, train, bus or even hiking or biking.

Tokyo is Japan’s largest city and the economic heart of Japan. The Imperial Palace is home of Japans emperor and his family. The famous Ginza shopping and entertainment district has elegant department stories, which sell a huge diversity of goods including delicious foods, cosmetics, fashionable clothes and jewelry.

Japan offers a broad range of delicious and healthy food. The central part of the Japanese meal is rice, and usually some type of fish and some soup. And of course there is sushi and tempura and many others options.

In southeast Tokyo bay you can see auctions at Japan’s famous fish market, the largest in the world. The activity begins very early in the morning, and they sell almost every fish in the sea, which is eaten including shrimp, ell, octopus, clams, swordfish and tuna.

Japan is the world leader in producing high technology consumer, robots, electronics and automobiles. If you want to buy cars and electronics of the future, stop by these showrooms to see them today.

Buddhism was imported from Korea and China in the 7th century. Shinto shrines tend to solemn and formal. And you may see some displays of the Japanese art of flower arranging. Shinto means the way of the gods and this religion honors your ancestors and nature.

The Buddhist temples can be like a carnival. After the gate there is a narrow street where vendors sell food and souvenirs. A Buddhist temple usually includes a large gate at it entrance, a main hall and often a pagoda. There are also buildings where scriptures are stored and a lecture hall. These religions help the Japanese through life, birth, marriage and to prepare for death.

While few Japanese are Christians, many Japanese get married in a chapel like setting and they have many of the elements of a western wedding, such as the reception, but they also blend in their own culture. The bride and groom are from Okinawa and Osaka and after the wedding ceremony they are playing traditional music and dances.

Kamakura, which is located near Tokyo, was where the first shogun, ruled Japan. Nikko has a shrine with wood carvings of monkeys, which depict the famous, hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil. It also has a stunning gate inside which was beautifully carved with dragons, lions and children.

Kyoto is an elegant land of geisha and has over 1,000 temples and shrines and including the gold and silver pavilions, which have ponds flowers, rock gardens plants and trees. One was built for a patron of the arts who spent a great deal of time perfecting the tea ceremony and hosting moon gazing parties.

There are 12 surviving castles from Japan’s feudal era and one of them was featured in a James Bond movie -You Only Live Twice.

Nagano has great skiing and was the site of the 1998 Winter Olympics – it has Japans largest ski resort. You can see many baseball games, Japan’s most popular sport. The crowds chant for their favorite team, and young players hope to join the major leagues.
