Jax in Japan: August 2007
http://japanjax.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
This is the place to - hopefully - catch up on the highs, lows and general fun times of my time in Japan. Tuesday, August 28, 2007. Mama chari' is the Japanese way of describing an ordinary bicycle - often it comes with 2 baskets (back and front) or perhaps with a child seat (hence the 'mama' part). The bike I ride around Sapporo could fit into this catrgory. And these days it's a rather sad looking mama chari, as the front basket is broken and doesn't sit quite as it should.

Jax in Japan: Takino Park
http://japanjax.blogspot.com/2007/08/takino-park.html
This is the place to - hopefully - catch up on the highs, lows and general fun times of my time in Japan. Saturday, August 18, 2007. Then it was off exploring again, walking through the forest. We discovered the rather disappointing 'ruins of a stonemason's house' as well as some kind of kids' ride that had a lot of instructions about safety and appropriate clothing, but nothing that helped us understand how on earth you were supposed to use it.

http://japanjax.blogspot.com/2007/11/catching-up.html
This is the place to - hopefully - catch up on the highs, lows and general fun times of my time in Japan. Sunday, November 18, 2007. Well, since it's been a few months, and a lot has happened in those months, I think it's time for me to catch up with this blog and let people know what's been happening with me. So the following few posts will be leaping back a few weeks and months.watch this space, and hopefully it won't be long before things are back up to the present time. View my complete profile.

Jax in Japan: July 2007
http://japanjax.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
This is the place to - hopefully - catch up on the highs, lows and general fun times of my time in Japan. Tuesday, July 17, 2007. Look at that blue sky. Swimming was a given - that's pretty much why we went, and the water was lovely - surprisingly warm and pretty clean. A few hours at the beach made for a lovely umi no hi, and I'm very grateful to my friend Hiroko who made it possible by taking us in her car. Wednesday, July 11, 2007. Here's a bit of a summary of the day:. And to finish up, cos we weren'...

I'm a kiwi living in small town Ehime and working as an ALT, teaching English in junior high and elementary schools in the Misaki area, at the far western tip of Shikoku. This is a record of my inaka (rural Japan) life and adventures :). View my complete profile. The school on the edge of the world.

Jax in Japan: March 2007
http://japanjax.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
This is the place to - hopefully - catch up on the highs, lows and general fun times of my time in Japan. Monday, March 26, 2007. Anyway, we had a fun time, played games, sang songs, and even had some new kids come along. Friday, March 23, 2007. Spring in the air. Today it really feels like spring could be on the way.like winter has just had its last blast at us, and that maybe the streets will stay clear from now on, and I can get my bike out.here's hoping, anyway.

Jax in Japan: May 2010
http://japanjax.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
This is the place to - hopefully - catch up on the highs, lows and general fun times of my time in Japan. Wednesday, May 05, 2010. Life in Misaki - the first three weeks. I have access to a car for work, and I hope to buy my own car next month. This is part of the reality of life in the mountainous islands of Japan, where people have learned to make use of whatever land they can for agriculture. Another feature of Japanese school is cleaning time - something else it's hard to imagine kiwi students doing!
