Dahmahnic in Japan

So awhile back (around a week after Dahm left) Dahm was able to spend a couple days in Japan. He went to some temples and some gardens and stuff and in general he had a really good time before there was a hurricane warning and the captain decided to cut out a couple days early to avoid it. He got his fortune read and was able to go to the top of the Skytree and take photo's and stuff. Since his mom is avidly ruining photography for him one day at a time, there aren't many photo's and stuff, but he did get a photo of a parade during "golden week." He was able to get free wifi running around Japan so he could send these to me, because like always I was right about burner phones in Japan being too expensive and that he should've just called Sprint and said he was in Japan so they'd give him free data. But no, I cannot know more than the sailors who have done this before haha... Since the captain decided to leave a few days early, he didn't get his chance to get souvenirs or anything, so that's a bummer. But he got to stay in a capsule hotel and he had a really great time and wants to see if we can get stationed there next. While it would be the opportunity of a lifetime, it's frustrating that we'd move even further away from family instead of closer to it like I hoped. Although I'm positive I'd probably love to live there too. One of the guys in his group I hate very much because he's everything that is bad about Navy sailors, but the other four are nice guys so I hope it was evened out. I'm missing one photo from the top of the Skytree, but that's ok hahah XD
