The Fam
Kumi-chan, Riyo and Hide - another of my families away from family.
How cute does Riyo look in here little jimbei ?? Very! is the answer!
It now feels very much like family in this home. I will be sad to leave - it has been a most amazing 6 months with these lovely people. How time flies.
Today we're having a bit of a girl's day in the house - but may eventually manage to get the kids ready and out to the movies. Will try and get to ゲド戦記 (Gedo Senki - newest Ghibli anime based on The Wizard of Earthsea series). Good to rest my mangey foot probably too.
I hear on the grapevine that Rebecca got the parcel I sent . . . if others in places such as Finland would only send their addresses then more packages would start winging their way about the place!!
A while back we did a typical Japanese summer activity of going to a fireworks show. There was one the night before last at Miyajima - always popular and packed out so I thought the beach was a much better option. But last month we all went to Mukaihara in the car and then on to Miyoshi on a twilight train ride through the green countryside. Family friends whom Rina was staying with had already saved a spot and provided us with a bit of food as we all sat along the raised concrete wall overlooking the river with a backdrop of mountains. It was probably one of the nicest fireworks event I've ever been to! Now horrible music blaring and set in rather beautiful natural surroundings. I also had some fun taking lots of photos . . .
Right - time to get on with the rest of the morning.
