Living the journey

I got to go on a boat!

JAPAN | Tuesday, 16 October 2007 | Views [446]

This weekend had me finishing setting up house - yes, I would now call it my home!  Going out for dinner with two Japanese mates and venturing to Kada with fellow native English speaking teachers. 

Dinner was delicious.  Although I still can't eat anything with eyes (ie a whole small fish that has been slightly fried).  Raw fish is fine especially salmon with advocardo wrapped in fried tofu - yummo or should I say oishi!

While exploring Kada a Japanese fisherman asked us if we wanted to go for a 1 hour cruise around the islands.  Readily agreeing we all jumped aboard his boat and went for a ride.  It was gorgeous and I could have stayed on there for MUCH longer.  We were shown an area that had been bombed by the Americans (which the Japanese chap told us using only Japanese - sign language is a fabulous thing!), saw a sacred site and a place where the sea eagles nest - relatively untouched.

We all then went and found food - this time I had curry udon.  Ah, if I continue to eat like I have been I think I'll end up rolling around rather than walking.  The food over here is GREAT!
