Feels kind of funny to say I had a school trip as a 30 year old, but I did! These photos are from Rokkōsan Bokujō. Got to pet sheep, horses, and a cow!
I'll hopefully have some shots from my 35mm film camera I brought along.

@elaterite@mastoart.social That sounds like fun! I hope you guys get some good fish. Don't forget the soy sauce!
Spotted this little guy as we were getting ready to board our ferry back to Akashi. It looks to be a grey heron. Wish I had a better chance to snap a good photo!

@elaterite@mastoart.social Brandon was toying with the idea! Apparently no license is needed in Japan for fishing and our city is a place people like to visit to fish.

@az@betagravity.com Omg you're right. Not as many splicers hanging around though!
Took a trip during Golden Week to the Maiko Marine Promenade at the Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge.
They have a couple spots with glass in the floor so you can look down to the ocean (100 meters below!). There was a glass section that was cracked and cones to block it off. 💀 Yikes.
Some twilight shots from the last couple weeks
There's just something about cityscapes as the sun is going down

@elaterite@mastoart.social We're adjusted! Our little orange girl is now settled that she has passed all the hair ties she ate... we're thinking she got into them in the midst of moving before we left. Definitely threw away any I had left and won't be using them anymore! You never know what weird things cats will get up to during times of stress 😵💫

While they have shifted, clearly my homework didn't disturb their sleep.
You couldn't tell by this photo, but we are currently renting a 5 bedroom house.
They have options for places to sleep and yet, mom's homework area is the hot spot.
In other news: Kitty has found a new purpose for my textbooks when I'm not using them.
Without much furniture, she has to get creative I guess!

@elaterite@mastoart.social I wish I could! I would be a little less soggy!
I never bothered owning an umbrella, but it's definitely a necessity here!
First I thought, "I'll just wear my good coat and it'll be fine." 2 rainy days later, I changed my mind.
Then, I got a ¥550 umbrella (currently $3.44 USD) thinking it'll be fine. I see why someone would want to pay a little extra for a sturdy umbrella here. 😅
