Trip
to Fukuoka!
- August 2-4, Kyushu
 |
 |
| Nate and Forrest take part in bodori, a crazy Japanese dance that involves walking around in a circle while repeating some rather retarded body movements. | Beforehand, Nate and Forrest did not know that the dance would take them into a religious trance, and Nate appears to have just discovered this fact. Nate, a former exchange student at Sophia University, is to thank for getting me invited to Fukuoka. |

 |
| Another quintessential image of Japanese dancing. Nate and Forrest have certainly got this dance down. | Okay, some more smiling girls, and I think even some guy managed to lurk his way into the picture. The final evening of the event was marked with great fireworks and free beer. |

 |
| I got rid of the guy who totally destroyed the previous picture, and the result is evidently a smiling Jan. | Aya, Ayumi, Sonoko, Kazune, and Sayoko cheer to the camera as they prepare to head home after some great days in Fukuoka. |
