A tough decision

Shortly after leaving Japan, I made a really tough decision. After four and a half years, I've decided to leave Feld Entertainment. It's been a great adventure, but it's just not for me anymore. I'm not sure what's in store next, but I'm looking forward to it!

Closing Day in Japan

Last day in Japan.

Greg walks through the 100 Acre Woods. I pose with my favorite Donkey.

Oh, look! It's Noon in the 100 Acre Woods!

Me and my favorite bear.

Here we all are, Japanese crew included.

Japan Closing Party

Right before we left Japan, we had a big party.

Here is me and Greg. Here I pose with Masami. She was part of the Japanese team.
Crew girls!
Me, Krista, Ale, and Jessi.

Here I am with Shawn. We worked together on the props for the show.

Here is Jason.

Here I am with Jarred. Jarred and I held down Stage Right together.

We don't always get along.

Neither of us was harmed while taking this photo.

The Japanese love speeches.

Here is my boss, Jeremy, giving his speech.

Nax (in the background) translates.

Hiro (head of the Japanese team) gives a speech, he does his own translating.

Mark gives a speech. He was really happy to come back to the show

for our Japanese tour, he really missed it.

2006/2010 team

Here we are, the same people that were with the show in 2006 and in 2010.
Mark, Michelle, Rich, Myself, Sallie (in front of me), Sunny, Nax, and Kevin.

Sam's Bar, Hiroshima

In 2006, we played Hiroshima and visited a

Disney Live!/Disney on Ice institution: Sam's Bar.

At Sam's, people from the shows sign the bathroom.

I signed the ceiling in 2006, you can see my 2006 signature next to the ceiling light.

Krista signs the ceiling too. Look, my signature is still there! Mark can't remember where

he signed the last time we were here.
Fluffy and Krista in front. Mark and me in the back.

Original 2006 signature.

This time, I sign the wall.

Miyajima, Japan

Itsukushima Shrine is a Shinto shrine.

It's often refered to as "the Torii in the water."

The Torii looks to be floating at high tide,
unfortunately, I only got to visit during low tide.

Miyajima Island is covered in wild deer.

This deer, walked up to me and ripped my map

out of my hands and started to eat it.

These deer are really not afraid of people,

I just sat right down to this one.

People stick coins in the cracks of the Torii to make a wish.

A Special Friend!

Keiko!

She surprised us with a visit!

I've missed her.
