Ninja Camp

Today we went to Ninja Camp up in Saga in Ureshino City. It was about an hour drive taking the expressway so not to bad. Here they have all sorts of entertainment for the kids especially the younger ones. Below is the entrance to the camp. This is Yanagi Genshiro most know him as Gen-San he is probably the most fakey performer in Japan. He showed us a traditional street performance they do in Japan with Sticks and used the Sword and paper to show us how sharp the sword was. He said over the demonstration they use Frog Oil on the swords so it wont cut anyone.

They were bringing in the prisoners while the show was going on.

Space and Science Museum in Takeo

Today we went with Jane and her girls to the Space and Science Museum in Takeo City,Saga Prefecture. It was about an hour away and Kayleigh was really excited about going. Below she is coloring a picture for Daddy. Almost there!!

We had to park up here, due to them having a car show in the main parking lot.

This was a perfect ride for Kayleigh it went really slow, she loved it. Kayleigh running away

The girls looking through the floor at the same people.

Not sure what this is but it was really interesting.

Our lunch for the day.

They had a really nice play area for the girls I think we spent a good 45 minutes in here, this place is worth the admission in. Kayleigh had a great time plus she was able to burn off energy.

Yutoku Inari shrine in Saga

Just near Kashima City in Saga,there is a very pretty shrine and it is very big. It is about an hour and a half away from Hario housing. You can walk all the way up to the top of the shrine. It is called the Yutoku Inari shrine. This shrine is visited by more than 2.8 million people every year. The shrine helps with business and plentiful harvest and protection from automobile accidents.Once you've climbed the many stairs of the shrine there is a mountain behind you can climb. Enjoy the pictures.

View from the top, finally made it up there. Was really pretty.

Look at all those steps behind me, it was a long walk up.

Package from the Kuykendall's

We got another package from the Kuykendall's yesterday was a great surprise, especially for Kayleigh she loves opening the boxes and seeing what is inside. She got some new coloring books and crayons along with candy, the girls got bath stuff and candy and gum. I stole the smarties they are my favorite :) She liked what she saw :)

It's hard to get her to wait to open the boxes, Amber and Autum are great big sisters and they don't mind at all. They love watching her try to get all the tape off the boxes. Thanks Danny, Michelle,and the boys, Jacob,John,Javin,Justus,Jaxson those names are not in order I'm sure but at least they are there. lol miss you all
