Good Evening!

How are you all? I'm doing well. Today I worked in Hakusan (which if you've been to Japan is on the Mita line). TOday I had a bunch of kid's classes which was kind of tiring. The past week or so I've been kind of feeling a little under the weather but I'm okay. I'm sure it will go away. Today was beautiful too!!!! Really nice weather these days. I really wanted to go to a park today. . sigh :)

Here are some pics from my travels around Japan. . . My friend, Mark, and I had a good adventure looking for nature near Tokyo. Which we found . ..but we had to take a local train around 2 hours out of Tokyo. But we found it :)

As we were walking on the paved sidewalk we past by some farmers. . . . here is this older man (Ojichan) tilling the land. I think by this time Mark is breaking into another version of "We've gone country. . . ". lol

Oh, in the country there were a load of bugs. Here are two odd looking grasshoppers that Mark decided to throw at me. In response I screamed as girly as I could. hahaha and then he started to sing "She's gone girl. .."

My friend from Hokkaido took me out for some Mongolian Yakiniku. It was good. Lamb, onions, and peppers. Also some good salt mix and sauce. Mmmmm

A random festival . . but super cute. A bunch of older men and women dressed up in Kimono type outfits dancing. Super cute.

I hope you all enjoyed these pics. More to come I promise. I love and miss you all.
