[ I have literally taken almost a week to write this post because the weekend was so intense it damn near killed me and brought me back with the memories of AWESOME. Basically it was legend. ]
Friday Megan came to Ine on a bus. She asked some elementary students (who she said were very polite) where I worked and after much 6-year old deliberation, she was pointed to the BoE. She then found me and my supervisor let me leave 15 minutes early! From there we went to Nishigaki, where we counted ob
aa-chans and got the first of many cases of BEER.
Megan thought Ine was absolutely beautiful, and she's not wrong.
Anyway we then played with Kirby a bit and then hopped back in the car and headed for Amanohashidate (天橋立) to meet up with my co-workers from Ine JHS to get crunk (read; sit seiza [hurty-sty
le] and eat raw things). So my co-workers were immediately in love with Megan because of her fluent Japanese! it saved me from making another awkward introduction anyway. The food was amazing, and my tea was quite refreshing. Seeing my teacher co-workers drunk was the highlight of my week for sure. A lot of them started talking to me in broken broken English and saying things that made absolutely no sense. The night ended with people asking me if I'd ever gone skiing, then someone said 'whis-SKI????" which was hilarious. Then they started telling me about sledding on a piece of paper or something instead of a proper plastic toboggan. I ... didn't really understand that.
I then drove Megan and the lunch ladies home to Ine. After dropping off the lunch-ladies, we watched cartoons and played with the ferret until sleeptime. 'Twas good.
