Sensational Saturday

I've made a conscious effort to get the kids out of the house and out of the neighborhood. They'll be housebound for the next week or two. Nate isn't allowed to drive in Japan.

The snow is melting.....and now there is LOTS OF MUD! We still enjoyed a nice walk around the perimeter of Swan Park.

We stopped at the Produce Market on the way home. This is cool. They have greenhouse upon greenhouse of strawberries, bananas, mangoes and pineapples. So WARM.

The strawberries are sold by weight. You pick the berry you want and snip it with scissors. Our container, about a quart, were Y700 ( a bit over $7), but oh are they good and not ONE bad berry in our container.

Our last stop of the day was the OCEAN.

In the evening Nate and the kids stayed home and devoured a roast, played games.....and I joined some friends at Yakiniku house. A fun day from start to finish.

Ah, chapel just called to make sure I know we're under a tsunami warning and I should stay away from the ocean today.  There are times having AFN might be a good idea. LOL

While this isn't incredibly amusing to the world at large, it IS amusing to us. From the side you can't tell that you are in the presence of a student driver.....except that I noted someone up there is a bit more timid than I about that center line. ::snort::
