Plenty going on recently, and I'll do my best updating on the highlights! Let's see, my last post was the end of the summer? Well since then...
I went to Sunset Live for the second year. This is where (if you remember from a whole year ago) we go up to Fukuoka prefecture, hang out all day at a huge multi-stage concert on the beach, taking the time to go swimming when it gets too hot. Then we camped out on the beach as it lasts all weekend! As expected, it was blast with great bands, some old favorites and some new to me. Didn't get many pictures this year though.
Then in September, I took a little vacation time to go visit Thailand. An unforgettable adventure, Bangkok and the island of Koh Samui were invigorating, and full of places to explore. I was only there for a week, and could have easily spent a month. The highlights here were the amazing temples and statues, the island beaches, the Full Moon Party in Koh Pangan (where we leaped a flaming jump rope, among other feats), and the AMAZING Thai food. Here's a few pics, and if you want more, check out my Facebook for the full collection.
Upon coming home I took on the Saga Prefectoral Driving Center in order to get a Japanese license since my IDP had expired. Well, I should mention that I actually started this ordeal back in the summer when I was trying to get some documents straightened out. In short, the process was long, painfully tedious, and expensive. Finally, after working on it for several months and countless trips out there (without driving), I took and passed the written and driving exams (4 tries on the latter) in October. So we be legally cruising the streets of Japan yet again in my excellent little Honda.
More updates to come soon...
