Today after church Emily went to a
friend's house for a "Full House marathon",
Sami went to a birthday party and Chris needed to work on a book report for school. So Matt & I decided to hop on the bikes and go for a ride. Matt bought a road bike to bring here as he planned on doing
alot of riding for some exercise. I did not bring my bike as it really isn't
equipped for the hills and roads here. So I borrowed Emily's for the afternoon and it was work getting up some of the hills. But I am proud to say I made it. All 4-5 miles. (Okay so it wasn't far, but hey it is better than nothing) I swear Japanese people never workout nor use any type of
diet pills because of the hills and walking here.
We stopped at an electronics store along the way in hopes to find a car transmitter for our
iphones/i pod. The radio choices here is about as good at the
television choices, so needless to say we were in need of something to allow us to play the
ipod in the car.
I am not sure why we locked our bikes as no one ever locks them. That is the bonus of moving to a country with no crime.
Riding a bike in Japan can be quite a challenge. Between the cars and the mass quantity of people it is a bit like playing
Frogger. We stopped along the way
because I was yelling at Matt why did I bring my camera if I never was able to stop and take pictures to look at the flowers
beginning to bloom.
Aren't those lovely flowers? Matt was being so sarcastic at where he chose to stop after I complained to him about my lack of stopping for photos. And of course he had to take a picture of me to prove a point. Don't I look happy?
