Out of the loop

So we had a really nice Typhoon here in Japan on thursday. It was slow moving and took a full 24 hours to clear itself from our coastline. The storm was impressive but without great big trees to fall and crush houses and kill people (like we had in vancouver last november) there really was little sense that my life was in danger. I drove to Karate training in the Typhoon only to find that Karate had been cancelled. haha. Oh well, I took Sensei for a little guilt trip on that one. Normally I like to get lots of pictures of the goings on here in Japan, but to get good pictures of the typhoon I would have to have gotten wet and I just don't like my readers enough to go do that. Instead though, I have recieved a few emails from friends and family with a few pictures that I think are worth posting. None of them have anything to do with Japan, but it's my blog and I'll post up what I damn well want. Anyways, in no particular order......... I hope you enjoy.

The first few are courtesy of Ian and Camerons Surfing trip near Tofino.

Lake Louise is from Lynne at work

And Sami (and his picture) are courtesy of Pat and Ashraf.

Anyways, off to dinner at Hide's (heeday) place. And Sensei Osawa just called to invite me to Yakko. Its rough being so popular.

Take care Vancouver.
