After just 5 hours sleep (another late night karaoke session!) I was picked up by my fellow teachers Junko sensei and Yukie sensei. We drove across town to Kaoru sensei's house. Kaoru sensei teaches history at one of my schools, her English is very good. There I met her 2 children Daichi and Mau. Daichi is a hyperactive 5 year old boy who was very excited to see me. He was eager to show me his pet beetle and some other insects that he collects in boxes left by the front door. By the time he'd finished chasing them around the floor and picking them up, they appeared to be dead or missing several limbs!
Mau (7) was also excited to see me. As soon as I arrived she practiced her perfect English.... It was far better than my level of Japanese and this kid teaches herself??!! I was amazed at her perfect pronouciation. They couldnt wait to show me around their house and play with me.
After coffee and cakes we left for Akiyoshidai - a mountain town famous for it's limestone caves - (the biggest in Japan). An hour later we arrived..
My new friends Daichi and Mau...
