About 2 AM the load speakers in town came on and said something in Japanese, then they said something in english. I was too asleep to hear what they said. But i was fully expecting an earthquake to come rumbling through. It turns out it was a warning for flooding.
Today was an extremely rainy day. But before the bulk of the rain hit, i met up with a few guys and went to HOMES. We got over to the place a little early so we walked around the park for about an hour. We were walking around inside HOMES looking at different things. They have a pet store inside. There was one cat that was attacking the window of anyone who would walk by. The prices for these pets were increadable they ranged from cat $700 - to dog $7000.
I bought a rain suit inside which is good because as soon as we got outside it started dumping. I put on the coat and went back to the hotel, by the time i got back i was soaked except for my torso so the jacket coat worked awesome.
I met up with a couple of people and went to pepper lunch for lunch. It was as always great. AFter lunch I headed to the Daiei mall. I did some grocery shopping. The first thing i noticed when i walked in was a very large kiwi display. They were giving away samples. The price was decent about 50 cents per kiwi so i got 10 of them. They came in a little basket with a kiwi logo on the side. And they threw in three kiwi tools. which is made up of a knife on one side and a spoon on the other. Very cool.
I went to church and ran into a couple of coworkers. After the service we got a ride back to the hotel by someone who works on base. I called up one of the guys and we went out to Mexican for dinner. It was pretty tasty. One the way back to the hotel the rain had lightined a lot, but that just means it is saving up for tomorrow.

I like the view from your new room, hopefully it's not too noisy. What was up with the tent on the grass? Japan's homeless population?
