Something about those pictures tells me they were not taken in Vermont. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Something tells me that someone went on a trip with a new digital camera! /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Yes, a long way from Vermont indeed. These were taken across the street from our apartment here near Nagasaki, on Kyushu in Japan.

You had us going Dave! Couldn't quite figure out what the pics were all about! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Now they make sense. Were you over there on business, vacation, or both? I bet it was pretty cool. Did you contact Henro before you went so he could teach you some good phrases, like....."Where am I?", or "You want me to eat THAT?" /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Hi Gary,

I signed up for a 9-month tour in Japan working at Sony here in Kyushu. The family came along too, so we're all turning Japanese. I did take some beginner classes in the language before we left, so I can order a beer and then thank the bartender, but not much more.

Last weekend the local rice harvest began, so I thought some of the TBN crew might like a few pics.

Now you're talking my language... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Enjoy you time in Japan...

Thanks, Henro. I'll pass on your regards to Kobo Daishi if I see him.

Howdy Henro,
I finally figured out what that is on your head. I don't know what it's called, but now I know it's now a lampshade. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
