I know I should be writing about new years, but this happened first and it was TOO funny. Kanako and I took a trip to the island of Jogashima, a little known island at the tip of the Miura peninsula (the peninsula Yokosuka Naval Base is on). This island is already known for being super windy and we went on an exceptionally windy day. As Kanako was getting out of the car a violent wind pulled the door almost off its hinges. After trying to no avail to force the door back in to place Kanako bravely held on to the car door as we drove to the nearest gas station where some nice attendants kindly duct-taped it into place. Kana snapped a picture of the tape on the door before we got it fixed the following day. It’s still not fixed, we just added a piece of metal to the latch to compensate for it being a few inches out of place. Welp, I guess it’s good that I’m giving the car away for free!
