The Koala Class
This took some time to arrange!Normally it would take me 15 minutes to walk to the park…but with 19 kids on a lead, it took 45 minutes! Tonami cried most of the way; don’t really blame her, being attached to the rope like a prisoner! The park was great, cool equipment and lost of space for the children to run wild and out of our sight - a little stressful, but no one was lost! Lunch time was fun…Rena spewed everywhere, so Mrs Nagata had to come and pick her up and also a boy who had diarrhea! It is not uncommon for the children to throw up at lunch time, happens bout twice a week! Mainly because they do not want to eat their food so they force themselves to be sick! Kind of clever but disgusting!!!
Playground The playground is just across the river from the kindy. We go here most days before lunchtime. There is not much equipment and a black gravel sandpit, but the kids love it!
Time is going really fast again - everything seemed to happen so slowly after I returned back from Adelaide. The next 3 months are very busy but
it is all so exciting - I can't wait! So you can keep up with me...

Reminders so I don't make the same mistakes twice:
*Take shoes off before entering change rooms
*In Japanese restaurants, don't wear the toilet slippers to your table!
*Pay for parking at Segan Shrine (but due to the severe language barrier, we were let through for free!)
*Don't leave the house without the phrasebook
*Don't ever eat chicken cartilage!!! (ohh that rubbery yet crunchy texture
Tonami
My little monkey - she will just cling whenever she gets the chance! still gives me shivers! - I wouldn't have eaten it in the first place if I knew what it was!)
