Sooooo we meet again....and this time I have brought photographs! Yes meine kleine schnitzel they are for you to look at. Jahhh, only you. Of course, of course you are most...... precious to me. But enough! No time for zee idle chit chattering, look at the hour! Ah such hour! Ich must schnell away! Tchuss!

Ahhh Ganz wunderschone! Siehst du diesen blumen! Aber wo haben sie gefallen aus?

Aus die prettiest baum (tree right) I saw that day (Ich Liebe 木).
Oh, arn't zeez zee preeetest pink petalz ! Ich glaube dass diesen petals smecht sehr gutt!
You see zee blue mit die pink mit die grun. Zehr Schon!
Jahhh, Ich mabe mit die colour gespielt!
Ohhhh Jahhhh juicy stigma, oder bist du a stamen person?
Just like fire or ...... red tissue paper?
Ah yes and the sun on a freshly harvested rice paddy (yes the accent had been done away with, I got bored).

So I spent a pleasant weekend on Izena. I ran 30k in preparation for the Naha marathon next weekend, I then spent a pleasant evening in the company of the Yamiyama family and the Yoshiaki family. For those of you who don't speak Japanese that is the Mountain God family and the Autumn Reed family (actually not sure on what kanji the last family has but I chose ones I like the meaning of). We cooked fish and lobsters on a barbecue and much fine tasting was done on my tongue. Apparently, so much so that my surprise was most aroused, lobster tastes better only partially cooked and dipped in it's own entrails. Now that may sound sarcastic but I assure you I am not joking. The lobster was only briefly cooked so that it was still very tender and juicy and the black innards were placed in a separate plate so that one would dip the white meat in there for some extra umph to the flavour. Very good. Then we drank whiskey until the wee hours. I won't say chatted but my Japanese lasted longer than in the past although there is always a point were I get lost and give in. I am aware Whiskey isn't part of most peoples diet the week before a marathon but hey diddly oh and the cow jumped over the moon! Hazzah! I ain't no KANGCHEONG SPIDER you know!

PS. I almost forgot but this does make me angry and Kangcheong for sure!

Bloody people, we are the bane of this world! Grrrrr! We have a system set up which allows (sometimes forces) us and the people who govern us to follow a strategy of short to medium term economic prosperity at all costs while distancing ourselves from the ill effects of this sufficiently that we can ignore them. Well it will only be so long before we cannot turn a blind eye to the costs any longer. I hope it hurts.
