This year halloween was pretty interesting. We went to a friends of a friends party(maybe I said that right) on Saturday night and had a good time. Then on Sunday we went to see the Norris Family for their party. It was a nice weekend, but it would have been better if this stupid head cold didn’t come back. Did you guess who we are? Waldo and Wenda, from the Where’s Waldo? books. Also we decided to carve some pumpkins this year with popular Japanese childrens characters on them, only it didnt go as planned. Apparently the humidity here causes pumpkins to mold at about 5X the rate they have in SC or in NC. Needless to say, I’ll show you Anpanman but not Baikinman, he was a little too…. fuzzy.
Anpanman is a bread headed superhero, whose head is filled with red bean paste. He fights crime and saves hungry people by feeding them…yes you guessed it, pieces of his head. He’s SUPER popular here and you can find him on everything! Baikinman is the villain of the show, and he is a germ man, I guess. I’ve watched a few episodes, and it’s kind of strange. Then again, what children’s cartoon isn’t? Interested? Just search youtube for Anpanman, they will be in Japanese of course but you can kind of guess what’s going on. I assume it could help me with my Japanese!
Other than that not much has gone on here. Josh has started ball season so he will be out a lot at night playing Marine Corps Balls all over the island. He was gone last night, he’ll be gone tonight and tomorrow night as well. At least I get him tomorrow during the day for a while! Our ball will be on Wednesday and hopefully I can post some pictures of us. The weather has cooled down a good bit. The air conditioner is off now and we just have the windows open. Josh isn’t a fan of sleeping with the windows open because all of the noises keep him up. Wish I had more to report but life has been kind of slow.
