Photos from the last month. I still have to do videos (if they aren't crap; I haven't checked yet).
First group is Nagasaki Obon. I think the idea is to send the dead to the afterlife by making loud sounds. I.E. firecrackers. It started to look like a riot as the night went on. If you go to this, bring earplugs and be prepared to dodge drunken lobs of explosive devices! And yes, that's my girlfriend in the pic, but I'm not trying to show off about how lucky I am; I can't help it if she's beautiful :).
Expand the post to see me post-nasal surgery! Yay!
From my hospital stay:
Wow, that's what swelling does to ya.
My logger friend.

I just love it when you post pictures!!! Is your nose still that big? I am sure to the Japanese it is. Glad you came out of the surgery fine, I was worried about you.
ReplyDeleteSo, did you get your surgery in a old folks home or are they the only sick people in Japan?
Love it, and you,
Mum
my nose's condition would gross you out. But it looks normal now at least.
ReplyDeleteOld folks just break easier I guess.
