And I'm Off

So, once the sports days end, it's pretty calm around here. I didn't take any pictures until today, when I said to myself that I needed to post something, so I had better take some pictures. Without further ado, five pictures from today.

First, a couple of rice fields, on opposite ends of the island.





Then this evening, I headed down to see how the construction was going on Mori's new halfpipe. It's going right along, I ended up working for a half an hour, cutting wood to the right sizes.



The island, of course, remains beautiful as summer rolls around.




From my front door.

On Sunday I'm going to Tokyo for a big photographic adventure. Next Thursday, Gabe (who some of you know) is coming to Japan to visit for a week and a bit! I will try to get my Tokyo pictures up the week after next, but the update schedule is going to relax a bit.

The second rice picture reminds me of a wonderful video game for some reason. It may be my favorite yet!

Lena, your rice field videogames are lame.

Stoppit Brendon, this is a classy blog and you can only say classy things.

To elaborate, the goal of the rice field videogame would be to pick all the rice. And there's a lot of rice in that picture!

Me: Un-lame. You: Un-classy.
