Random evening...

I've decided Japanese people are VERY funny - I can't understand what they're saying, but they seem to be funny! Adrienne, Rachel, and I went to the beach today - my hair was 8 times it's normal size - if you haven't seen the Friend's episode where Monica's hair expands exponentially, see it, and think of me and my poor hair! We took 8 pictures of ourselves so that my hair could be in the picture and not flying out of it - never did get that shot!! Anyway, beach exploring - just walked and walked to another beach, checked out the water and the area, figured out where to park next time :) Came home, took a shower after sweating ALL afternoon, it was much needed. The humidity is unreal! We then drove around to find something for dinner - decided we were hungry and just went to the American Village and had Mexican food - it was no Santanas or even Chevy's but it was good :) We then went to the middle of the square that Adrienne and I saw the other band and listened to this HILARIOUS group - this big guy was jumping all around singing - he would enjoy dance class, he'd compete with my gazelle like skills in the Flying 8 AKA the leaping song! If you want to see a video I think Adrienne is putting one on her blog or I'll try and get mine one sometime...have to download all my pictures still! We watched and laughed for quite awhile before heading to sit in front of Starbucks and people watch - can't afford to drink anything from there :( People watching is hilarious here. After awhile we realized that there was a crowd gathering across the street...it was a juggler - fun! He had music to go with his act and little dance moves and all kinds of fun things! He juggled with fire which was super exciting! Near the end I apparently met my first friend here, he made some small talk - it was a little awkward, I didn't know what to say so Adrienne had to break up with him for me...yes, I am very jr high currently! So all in all, the evening was rather funny and it's way past my bedtime, but we were so excited to actually have stolen internet that I had to put up a blog! Missing everyone
- some of you are SO going to be hunted down if I don't get an email or a comment soon :) Love you much!

Ok... jugglers, crazy bands playing wierd songs, strange men wanting you to "bowl" with them...and to add on top of that... your hair! Poor girl... perhaps the "jumping" man needs a friend...lol!! Anyway sounds like you are having a "interesting" experience and overall enjoying yourself... despite the fact that chai tea is now no longer budget approved! I'll email you on facebook for a more detailed "update" on my life. Love you lots & miss you a lot!!!!!!

Sounds like a completely crazy night. Perhaps the mexican food is better in Japan then it is in Prague. Frankfurt or Vienna, because the mexican food there leaves a lot to be desired.
