Here in Japan GW means Golden Week. I’ve got a particularly long Golden Week set up – nine days off in a row. Kuniko’s is not quite so long – she has six days off broken up with classes in between. Although we don’t have any specific plans (other than a visit to Costco) some of my students have some pretty dramatic plans. If you watch the news it says that travel is down in Japan due to the disaster, but from the small sample of my students it seems like just about everyone is going somewhere – domestic and international trips.
We’re hoping to set something up with Yoshi and family during Golden Week, and perhaps do a little hiking, but other than that it’ll be chillout time. I have a couple of projects that I want to get done: organizing music, looking at the wiring of our TV in the attic, and maybe planting some cilantro in the front yard.
Thursday is here, and the big party is tomorrow. I’m looking forward to seeing how that turns out…
