Highlights from my past few weeks

Sports Day:
The enkai that followed was interesting - I don't think I talked to a woman all night. The PTA was there, and all of the fathers of my students talked to me and got me drunk - how all enkais should be.

Golden Week:
Suzie and me on the boat

Fukuoka was great - I stayed in a capsule hotel for the first time. But I really want to stay in one of these!

The everyday:
Wicked starfish that Erich found

The rain has been pretty constant, but when it gives way to sun, the beach near my house is beautiful. Suzie and I often go running/walking on it after school.

My mom and Ward loved Japanese food!
They loved everything!

They tried things that I wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole, like natto. I'm proud of them - they did really well here!

Sorry for the hasty update - I have to get ready to go to Kobe. Tonight, Suzie and I are taking the overnight bus, and we have a day to explore before going to the JET Renewer's Conference. I hope we can get to see Himeji-jo, the best castle in Japan.
