Tuesday Night and Wednesday morning (15-16th) English class and weeding.

Yesterday after we had measured the farm and had lunch, Ayako had to teach english classes. So I helped her. How do I help her, you may ask. Its actually not that difficult. I speak english! Ok, I do more than that, but mostly she just wants me to talk with the students and answer questions, so that they can practice hearing and speaking english. First she tought a class of three older women. TWo were christians. Somehow Convayer Belt Sushi, known in Japan as Kaiten-zushi came up and one of the ladies invited to take me out to eat there. So tonight we will be going to a Kaiten-zushi resturant. She will pick me up at 6:30. I`m excited!
Her next class was of four 8 year old kids. One of the boys was SO cute! I took his picture. I helped them play some games. For example, they had to give me money and I would give them stickers to put in their books with different foods on them.
Then there was a private class with one lady. We basically talked the whole time in english.
Then lastly a class of four 10 year old girls, who loved to clap about everything. They asked me questions about what was my favorite this or that, and also we worked on finding places on the map.I would ask `` where is Mexico?`` or something like that and they would have to find it and say `` Mexico is here``.
This morning I did some weeding. You take a hoe and wack the weeds. Right now it is about 1:15 and I am going to go out and do more soon. The Mom and Dad are going to Himeji to give a talk about how to do Organic farming, so they will be gone for the rest of the day. Ayako has to go teach english classes somewhere else so she will be gone too.
Sometimes I talk to the mother, her name is Mariko-san, at meal times. She is quite funny sometimes. She tells me about other WWOOFers they have had. Some from Hong Kong were telling her about how their houe is the size of the Ito families living room. It is about the same size as ours. The only people who come and do WWOOFing who have big families are from Hong Kong and Tiawan. Both of them had 7 and 8 siblings and lived in the house the size of our living room.
Mariko-san also gave me a kimono that a WWOOFer had bought and given to her to give to another WWHOOFer. So, of course I am very happy about that.
Well, I think that`s all for today! I am going to go hoe somemore weeds.
 jya matane!
