On Friday night, loads of us went to Makuhari in Chiba, we bought loads of fireworks, (and beer :D) and had a great time, though the lighters we had werent particularly good, and it was a bit windy but it was a great experience, at one point there was about 30 or so of us there, from all over the world, did get quite drunk, and after everyone left we slept on the beach, then it started to rain, so then we slept on benches outside the station until the first train at 5am (which seems very popular here, theres always people asleep outside stations before they open) Unfortunately i have only one photo from this, i didnt take my camera to the beach, which turned out to be a good choice, as matt's is now broken. lol.
Then, i slept all saturday until 4.30pm (3rd week in a row hah) then in the evening we went to Kichijoji, which is about 4km south of Kamishakuji, to arestaurant where Matt's friend works, was a really nice restaurant, seemed quite posh, but it wasnt expensive at all really. One thing we did notice was how big Kichijoji is, there are LOADS of shops and stuff there, so we will definately be going back there at some point. But one thing happened in the evening, we were waiting for the trains to leave, and they were 20minutes delayed, it was supposed to leave at 18.51 but was still there at half 7, when we finally got going, it seemed that there had been an incident at higashi-fushimi, there were police and ambulance crews everywhere... and body bags, not a pretty sight. Not sure what happened though, the signs just showed "a dire incident"
And finally, today is Nicolai's last day so i can see something being done this evening, but dont worry theres no school tomorrow as its Umi no Hi (ocean day)
