Picture Post

Hi... I'm not sure who's out there now in LJ land since we're at the start of Christmas week. But for those of you who are watching, I thought I'd post a few pictures that I've taken in the last few days, just to give you an idea of where I am, and what it looks like here. I still need to get a picture of the little bird that Masahiko's dad caught in a field recently near here. She's so cute! anyway, here's a few pics for you...



First of all, I think I mentioned that we live very near Mt. Fuji, and that it's covered with snow this time of year. I took some pictures of Fuji-san when I was walking home from my haircut the other day. These are taken from the street near our house - just about 5 minutes from my home:





This is the view from my the second floor of the house, looking over the tea field at twilight today:



And here is the ramen shop across the street (you can also see the sign in front of our house for "Peaks English School" - that's the school I'm trying to start):



The ramen shop owners recently re-built their restaurant and house - this is what it looked like four years ago:



Here's some shots of my little classroom with my Christmas tree (you can see the cards I've received by the tree). Leo decided to get into the shots too. It's such a cute classroom, I wish we'd get some students:







I haven't gotten to take a recent picture of our house, but I did take one four years ago, and it hasn't changed much (but this picture is not very good - it's a bit distorted):



and finally, here's a picture of Leo lounging in the sun today - it comes in really strong in the second story. At least one of us is not worried about having so much free time:

The house sounds great - I'm glad you have plenty of room.

I'm looking forward to more!
