Akioshido

Hai Pinapple desu!
It has been a pretty long time since I have last posted, sorry. The reason I haven`t posted lately isn`t because I have been up to nothing.On the contrary, I have been very busy, you see everyday while Keri is busy teaching genki students it is my job to be socializing with said genki students! All of the kids here love me from the most overly genki 小学校生　to the most jaded english disinterested 中学校生。But, I haven`t been able to post any pictures because the JET program is pretty strict about having pictures of students posted on the web.

But anyway, here are some photos of what I did a few weekends ago. I went to Akioshido, the largest underground caves in all of Japan, and maybe even one of the largest in Asia (?). And most amazing of all it is within the prefecture (kind of like a state) that I am living in!
It was super cool, it looked like a scene out of Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl.
Check it out!





Here I am posing near one of the many awesome rock formations within the cave. I think this one was named hill of a thousand rice fields. And trust me, they do look a lot like the rice fields here in Japan.

Met a friend when leaving Akioshido


A really nice Obaasan (grandma) engraved this piece of limestone with the kanji for Akioshido and the date I visited.
She thought I was such a cute lil puppy!

Until next time!
