We had a long weekend here, and managed a lot of relaxation time. The event to watch out for was a typhoon that was approaching, but at the last minute it headed north out to sea and we just caught the edge of it. <\/p>\n
It was a noisy night – the wind was whipping through but it never really got too crazy outside. Everything that started on our patio stayed on the patio, so that was a relief. When were walking around Okubo the next day we did run across somebody’s wig on the ground, so there were some casualties. <\/p>\n
Kuniko and I used our free time to do some clothes shopping, and got some supplies to keep the house running through the week. We spent an evening over at Kuniko’s folks catching up with them and picking up some rice for our bento lunches. Also, we got signed up for the rice harvest. Since we helped plant it, I guess we’ll help harvest it too. I’m eager to see the next step in the process.<\/p>\n
Tonight we had some leftover curry and watched “Dead Poet’s Society”. It was nice to just relax and take in a movie. Tomorrow it’s back to work for both of us, but Kuniko has another two-day weekend to look forward to. A couple of two-day weekends in a row is something very rare recently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
