Tadaima!

Ok, big photo update! Just had my second day of classes, and took a bunch of pics on the way home. Wow! Went to school with Katsuhito (father), who showed me how to walk to the station, which train to get and then how to walk to school! He is really nice!!! n_n


Here is a photo of my University... well at least my building!




This is outside the little mall opposite my university.. as you can see there are HEAPS of bikes, Everyone seems to bike here, ither that or have tiny cars! Its great, although witha population over over 130 million I guess you can all drive 4 wheel drives ;)



0.0 This is inside the local super... Japanese beer heaven!!!



These photos are all from my walk home from uni, before and after that train n.n





This sign cracked me up... everything is so cute here!!


Kore wa Jidouhanbaiki! They are everyhwere! And you can get loads of differnet things in them... its crazy you can get beer).. I even saw one where you could get 700ml bottle of beer. But whats stopping kids buying it? Haha



Just around the corner from my house is this cute cake store... now if only it was vegan... >.<

The next lotos pics are all houses on the way home.. seriously, 95% of the houses here are like this. Very beautiful, very traditional and all have small but impeccible gardens.
















Here is a cute little truck,, seriously, it was so small (This one is for Debra) n.n


And here is my house!


And here is a sign on most houses.. no idea what its about, but its cute as!


Again, their garden is perfect, like all gardens I have seen.


Amd here is my room!! (I sleep on the futon by the way... when in Rome...)





Later that evening we went to Besto Denki (electronics store) and outside was this stand. Turns out that its mochi with sweet bean filling and totally sweet for vegan gaijins like myself! Its called Umegaemochi... haha when I asked the guy for a photo, he seemed pretty sketched out. Probably though I was some insane foreigner or something hah. Incidently, Besto Denki sells second hand CD`s and I managed to pick up 2 Ajikan CD`s for REEEEAL cheap ^.^




Ok, i`m off! Just had a huge breakfast again! Will post pics of my family very very soon! Mata ne!
