Crazy Little Thing Called Makoto

summer hasn't finished yet! people!

michelle pland a trip to ishiraishi island in okayama. 

and her organised everything. especially the shopping was so hard i guess.

we left around 10am in himeji with a lot of food and drinks!

after got off the ferry, we had to carry all the stuff by ourselves!

thru the small passes we finally arrived in the villa! actually that was about 5 min walk! hehe!

the villa is very nice. not new but i liked the deck. sitting on the chair and seeing the view.

 

we could walk to the beach and the was nice. water wasn't super clear like okinawa thou.

i know i cant expect that.

last sunday, we had a bbq in fukudomari beach.

weather was better than i guessed. luckly it was very sunny and hot!

actually i wanted this bbq small. about 10 ppl was ok for me.

coz it is kinda hard work to organize thinkgs if too many came.

but you know, more ppl more fun. im glad if ppl enjoyed it. anyway ended up about 20ppl came.

you can see the same old ppl(heehee) in th photos.

but we invited some new. we had new blood!

bbq itself, fun same as usual. bought a lot of meat. this is mike's suggestion.

some ppl swam in that dirty water!! hope they don't get any disease!

durling the bbq, some parasailers landed on the beach. it lood so cool!

i chucked around firz with jon and brandon. jon is very good!

after we cocked yakisoba!! good job sachiko! i was so yam!

and this time kyosuke and i talked about something new before.

now it's "somen" time! hanako was in charge of somen! great job!

we stayed in the beach around 8 hours. but it was so fast! i don't really remember what i did!

i hope ppl enjoyed it and became better friends thru this.

 

last saturday, we wen to see the fireworks to himeji port.

met friendz at shikama station. and we did a long walk to the port.

girls were in beautiful yukata. opps! girls were beautiful! heehee. 

i was in jinbei. and still looks stupid!

 

lucy kyosuke and i wast lost. or other friends run awany from us?

after around 20min, we finaly found the ppl. and the place was perfect to see the fireworks.

but we had to see them from inside of the fence. i felt i was like a prisoner. haha.

however the fence wasnt electric...sorry!

well, fireworks were soooo beautiful. whatelse can i describe? good? nice? terrific?

that was spectacular!!!

you can see some video below.

 

after the fireworks, lucy and i headed off to the city to see jason(better one) and laurel(his girlfriend) to say good bye.

i play friz with they. and they are very very very nice perosn.(well, my friends are usually nice! haha)

they are going back to Tasmania that has the most beautiful water and air in the world!

catching up ...

on 21st of july(saturday) was opening of kelly photo show.

the show was held at a samll cafe in fukusaki.

the cafe's garden was so beautiful. pls check the photo>>>

 

she is a great photographer.  not professional yet. but she will be soon.

the photos were very good. various kind of photos.

so it's hard to discribe all.(im not a good writer...)

but i like almore all photos. especially the flower and the monk.

 

it was the first day of the show and was opening party.

many friends came to celebrate her.

 

after the opening party, kelly held the party for friends at her place.

but i couldnt go. coz the nite was the last nite with mac.

so i headed back to himeji.

 

my friends had dinner with mac at everest(nepal cuisine restaurant)

but i couldnt join that coz of kelyys show. however i was the one who started to organise the nite out!

actually i wanted to see mac before he leaves.

i couldnt go to the macs(and others in shirasagi resi) coz of the friz tornny(will write about this later) on 14th..

 

anyway,,, i saw mac and other friends in tiger.

had fun talking about the time he came and what we did like baseball, bbq and so on.

he was a boy when he came! haha. now he is a man!

he is a great person. not like the other stupid gaujin guy! heehee.

so very sad he left..nobody cant take his place.

bye mac!

on monday(holiday), after the typhoon gone, we celebrated megumis birthday in okinawa bar.

mishelle organized the party and made great choco cake(sorry didnt help you out!!)

 

when i arrived, there were already 7 ppl there. but i wasnt the latest one this time.

igor who is secretly invited(till shell muttered to herself!) was late coz of the huge earthquake in niigata in the morning,

that made the trains delay.. poor igor. .but you are so nice!

 

we started eating(oops, celebrating!) before igor arrives.

the food was great and a lot!!! drinks were nomihodai.

i had tons of orions. they are always nice! or should i say only always nice to me is them? sigh..haha!

 

as i said in the title of this entry, megumi is alway smileing(eccept when shes not smiling, heehee. stop joking, ME!!!).

she is alyway nice to ppl and i think her smile makes ppl's heart warm.

so she deserves to get those presents! ppl got her great presents. see photos.

 

after presents, when the party was in full swing, mishells homemade cake came out to the table.

it looked so yammy! so was the taste!! if i wasnt full, i wanted more! well done shell!!!!!!

and okinawa bar presented us a bottole of sperking wine. what a bar! good birthday deal!

 

happy birthday again, megumi!!!
