Jimoto no Gaijin

Who am I? Since 1985,a resident of Ajigasawa, a small town on the west coast of Honshu, Japan- yes, way up there near the top, in Aomori Prefecture. Problem? I've got the wrong face (Canadian Celt). People still give a start when they round the supermarket aisle and see me. So, who am I? Jimoto no Gaijin- the local foreigner.

Curiosity- maybe that's why I like cats?

Towada Interlude

A little over 2 hours from our place,up in the highlands of Mount Hakkoda, the shield volacano south of Aomori City, is a crater lake called Towada. It is a famous tourist center, so is not usually on our beat. However, Luke and Yuko decided to give us an anniversary present (6 months late, for better weather), and came along to make sure we enjoyed ourselves! Which we did.

Great meals.

A morning walk to the "Twin Maidens" statue.

And on the way home, a hike in Oirase Gorge.
God has made a beautiful world, and given us a great family.
