Emily, Kay, Yuko and I went to Shimane's local Aquarium. I didn't know what to expect from it, but it turned out to be really great. Like most things in Japan, it was extremely well-done. These are the Beluga Whales.

The field of rice behind my house is just gorgeous. The wind was blowing one Saturday morning, so I captured it. The waves look like something running through the grass.

This is a little video that shows the view from the bullet train in Japan. It doesn't look like we're going that fast, but in actuality we're moving at nearly 200 mph.

I don't know what they were doing, but I think they were eating. There are an inordinate number of insects that live on my house - creepy, really. But, these birds were just flying around outside the window in swarms back and forth. It was pretty fun. Had I tried, I could have reached out and touched one.
