Mie 2012

trip to fumika's house in Mie prefecture

the cherry blossoms at night are amazing. on the train ride there i saw a few other canals lined with lit up cherry trees.  awesomeness all over

fumika's mom joined us.

the name of this river is 10 4 river, which in japanese is "ju shi" gawa.  it sounds like juicy

so we took a photo of fumika's juicy bottom over the juicy river

mu mu now lives in the house cuz it was so cold this year.  wow it only took them 10 years to finally let the dog in.  just kidding, there were other politics involved.

we came home to fumika's mom's awesome dinner of udon, fried stuffed things, etc... awesomeness.

the train to nagoya

using fu-ballz pocket mirror

stinky crotch

fumika's station is so old that they still use these super thick card stock tickets

korean pop stars in nagoya

American Soft, when i see this i think of darkin brown, the softest american i know.

i really wanted to buy this shirt.  but it's a $45 joke.

looks like someone used the english dictionary when they made these signs.  they prob meant gate but found wicket, like those things used in gateball and croquet.

one last dinner from fumika's mom.  japanese simplicity awesomeness.  See you next time Mie Prefecture!  Thanks again Sugimoto family.
