So Saturday I had to go to a field trip with the Natural World class. We went to a mountain to look at rice paddy's. We easily were distracted by Simon's new pet and a crab that made one of the teachers scream. Then Alecs picked it up. We also got lost on the way, missing the turn and driving up a mountain path that scraped both sides of the car and eventually turned rocky and too steep to drive up. There was also a creepy abandoned car, barking dogs in the distance, and no cell phone service.
Then we went to the Halloween party in the I-House. It was pretty cool. Food, candy, drinks, music playing, everyone in costume. Ours was ridiculous. We were Seinan Senshi/Seinan Soldiers, kind of like Sailor Moon. We got the idea when Meagan saw the masks in the dollar store, so we went with it. They even had a villian one for Chris, and he bought dynamite that I didn't realize actually exploded out confetti and smoke. He shot me close range, I screamed in alarm, and everyone stared and went dead silent. They thought I'd really been shot or something. After the party we went out for a while then came back and watched Silent Hill. It wasn't that scary... so Sunday we watched テケテケ, a movie about a creature drawn to red that kills people. It wasn't really scary at all either.

As far as long ago things go, I tried to upload the Kyoto trip pictures but didn't get them all there. But they are on facebook if you want to go seek them out. Here are a couple to tide you over.
Shabu-shabu dinner. We put the meat and veggies in the water/sauce and it cooked
