Hokkaido Quake

There was an earthquake north of here (way north of here) in Hokkaido last night. I guess it was a big one, but since it was offshore, the main thing they were worried about was the tidal waves. It was way too far away for me to feel, and I only heard about it from someone at work. Everything here is A-OK, so no worries.

Today I had an easy day – just two classes. They were pretty fun, and the students behaved very well. I tought the teacher’s class in the afternoon, and they treated me to cookies and tea during the lesson. It was very nice.

Miss Kageyama brought in some tacos that she bought at a restaurant near her house. They were actually not too bad – flour tortillas, strips of pork and grilled onions, tomato, lettuce. No cheese, but considering the cheese they would have used, that’s probably a good thing. It was a very nice treat.

I’m off to Befu tonight to do a little bit of shopping. I’ll be back early to catch up on my sleep. Tomorrow I’m hoping to do some hiking, since the weather has turned beautiful.
