well, it’s about three weeks since i last posted….  i have heaps to talk about but alas the cleaning is calling

Mum and Dad have been and gone.  I’ll talk more about that at a later date.

For now I am celebrating the fact I can download pictures to my laptop from my phone, so I have a few to share with you.  Most of these we taken at Hama-Rikyu gardens near Shiodome.  Some very pretty flowers the day we went there.

This photo is from last night.  We had a party and they served us whale bacon.  I ate whale…..  Tasted like silverside.  Won’t be doing that again on principle.

 Well, God does provide!  I’ve been craving an easy relaxing weekend for a while now, and finally its happening.  Unfortunately its due to Peter and his bro and cuz getting colds, which really is quite unfortunate.  However, we are rescheduling Disney for next weekend.  So now I have nothing to do tomorrow.  Might call Xina I think.

At work we have some pretty big changes coming up.  4 of the teachers are leaving our school, either transferring or leaving the company totally.  And maybe another 1 (but Im really hoping that Kuniko isn’t going to be transferred!).  So we had their going away party last night.  It was *huge*!  70 people in total.  To tell the truth I wasn’t really looking forward to it, but in the end I had a pretty good time.  It helps that Sanae (our current head teacher) chose a pretty great table for me to sit at!

Unfortunately I totally forgot my camera.  grrrr.  ah well. 

Looking forward to – Sakura blooming in the next few weeks
