Lights, Lights, and More Lights!

We started installing our light fixtures! These were all purchased in the US. A Huge THANK YOU goes out to Michelle and Jim for their advice, assistance, and overall logistics in making this possible! We are so lucky to be able to use these lights since the styles and quality available to us in Japan are limited at best (OK, the choices here stink!!!). In fact it is nearly impossible to find incandescent fixtures since virtually all of Japan is lit with fluorescent units! As you can imagine they are blinding, cannot be dimmed, NOT energy efficient, and would ruin a wooden home! BTW, they are also at least 5 times the cost as units from the US!!!!!

Here is the pantry:

Here is the toilet room:
Here is the Senmenjou (tooth brushing sink/changing room):
