The Lake
Out in the middle of the lake
(They had no life jackets to give us, so comments about this please =P)
Zina taking in the sites
Overlooking Kyoto from the hill next by our house
It is so beautiful out here in Kyoto, I really enjoy it here. It is city life, without actually living in the big city and it is quiet too but without the deadness feel of living out of town. Also, with all the hills and nature surrounding us it just too nice. 1 drawback though is of course all the creatures of the 100 legged type, the 4 legged type and the 8 legged type. Oh well, its something I can live with.
Yesterday I heard a scream coming from one of the girls room. Apparently there was a big spider in there. My curiosity got the better of me (I cant stand spiders at all) and I went in to help kill it. After moving the bed which that spider was hiding under, it ran across the wall and towards the main door. It was the biggest spider I have ever seen. A good 8-10cms in diameter. (It got killed before I could take a picture so you will just have to believe me).
So far in our rooms there has been lots of wildlife. Besides us, the students and our wild life ^^, there has been 1 centipede, 1 gecko and 1 spider all in the past 4 days. That's all that we have been able to see *shudders* haha
