I’ve been on holidays for a little while now and I wanted to talk about some of the things that I’ve done so far. Last week I went to a couple of parties with some pretty interesting people. On Monday I went to an gathering with a Mr.Mazuzawa, one of my English teachers. It was a great night. First of all we visited an orchard and got to see how those work. Did you know that Apple trees actually produce apples? I didn’t get any pictures because we went after the sun had set. Afterwards we went to a pub called, “yoseki”, which means, “The color of drunk.” We drank, partied and got royally wasted. Here’s a pic of our fun:
Now you may be wondering why the Canadian flag is there. Well, the owner of the orchard joined us for drinks and so did his daughter. She spent some time in Victoria and got this flag.A pretty interesting coincidence if you ask me. Later that week on I had a Christmas party with the people that teach at my Eikaiwa. It was a ton of fun. Here are some pictures of what was going on:
There was wine and food and all sorts of good stuff. I also met a lot of great people. Let’s move on to the weekend. This is where I went to Sendai. I decided, why the heck not? Here is what Sendai looks like from the top of the AER building.
The large white thing off in the distance in a large Buddhist statue. It’s huge. Someday, I’m taking the subway out there and getting a close up picture of it. It’s at least 30 stories high. The second picture is that of the Shinkansen and a regular rail that runs through Sendai. I got a pic of a train going through. If you ask me, Edmonton could learn a thing or two about mass transit from Sendai. They have very similar populations, so I see it as very unreasonable that Edmonton keeps wasting it’s time not doing anything. Sure, they are expanding the LRT, but they should also be focusing on rail to the suburb cities as well. The very fact that they aren’t doing this enrages me. And when I am enrage I can’t get un-enraged very easily.
