うんどかい and some catch up

Yesterday, I went to my elementary school's sports day. It's kind
of weird. They take all of those little fun games that we've played at camp or as icebreakers and made it into an entire day. Each school does it. The event is for the whole family and everyone. I was even recruited to compete. With the junior high brothers and sister of my elementary kids, we did a relay race involving jumping rope, tossing bean bags at a 14ft high basket, and chugging green tea. I had a great time and was cheered on by all of my students.

Afterwards, I saw Miki, the best friend of all of the Tadotsu ALTs. He works at the junior high. He and the vice principal were loading up some of the stuff after the elementary school's sports day. So Miki asked me to go bar hopping. I haven't been out in a while and wanted to get some Japanese practice in, so I humbly accept (with a twist of the arm, of course). Miki told me to invite Nick, the Zentsuji ALT. And so went the Three Amigos. First we went to a yakiniku restaurant (lit. cooked meat). Yakiniku is like grilling food at your table, great taste and great fun. After some great lessons on the local dialect, sanuki-bin, we headed out to the Grasshopper, a local bar run by an

So I'll let you guess who's who. There's me, Miki, and Nick. Have fun guessing.
I don't know why I look like such a goober in this picture; I really didn't have hardly anything to drink. Not enough to justify the picture.

(The reason this picture and some of the following ones are "late" is because they were given to me by Miki, I'm very thankful.)


This is one of the pictures that Miki took of me dancing at the Tadotsu festival. I need to scan in a couple of the hard pictures given to me. But this one is great. I think it shows everything that is just weird about this dance. I had a hell of good time though, even if I looked like a goober.
Well, that brings me to the end of this blog entry. Check back in often to see if I really am getting better about posting more often.
