Well, I've been in a Japan a week now. The food is great, class starts tomorrow, and my Japanese is already improving. I've come to know the local area fairly well, see pictures below, and I love the houses and fields I've been seeing. The cars are small and the trucks look like toys, but I have seen one I could call a semi, but I don't have a picture. For those of you who have nothing better to do than read these things (teenagers especially) this is not for you, it's for my girlfriend and friends and people who have an actual interest in Japan. Please don't send me anything unless you want to ask a question, or have a good suggestion about places and events worth seeing or eating at. You are welcome to peruse through this and take my experiences as they are. For those of you who are interested in their own Japanese adventure, please look up Kansai Gaidai University.
A few of the larger local houses and their gardens
A local shrine and park
The Main Shrine Building, I couldn't get a good picture of the inside yet. Perhaps at a later date.
A smaller shrine to the right of the one above.

I don't know what they are called, but the little dog/lion statue things are really cute. (I know, they aren't there to be cute, but I like them!) I cant wait to visit! (keeping my fingers crossed!)
Hey Jake.
I am so envious of you. the shrines are beautiful!! Have you gone to any Shinto shrines yet?
I think you are falling behind on your posts. There is no pic of your bike or your dorm room...how about your friend?
