Just so I post one more thing in August...

OK, so my brother came and we had a very good time traveling around and whatnot.  I didn't have much of a chance to post while he was around since we were busy and I also kind of wanted a break from posting.

But here's a quick summary and I promise to write more about the interesting parts later:

We went to four Nippon Professional Baseball games, saw three superhero movies, swam in two water parks, and we fed wild monkeys (don't worry, it was monkey-food!).

What could have been better?

Anyway, apparently there is a tsunami warning at the moment (not a major one) due to the big earthquake near the Philippines.  I'm not worried since we've had plenty of warning and I live on top of a steep hill.  I was actually more worried yesterday morning at around 4 o'clock when an earthquake woke me up suddenly (usually you can hear them coming but since it struck suddenly I knew that the epicenter had to be close).  That earthquake was a 4 on the Shindo Japanese scale according to the Japan Meteorological Agency and a 5.7 on the Richter scale.  Nothing in my room fell down or anything though, it wasn't that big.

That's all for now.  I'll write more soon!
