Day 5: walking around in field

Today is only weekday inbetween the big long holiday.
Soprano was taken to walk out in neighborhood after kids came home from school.

Mommy's friend's daughters, Mi and Chi showed us wonderful rice field around their house.
There's some vegetable field around our house in Tokyo, but this rice field here in Kochi is totally different.
So big and real!!

Seven Day Trip to West Japan - Day 3 & 4

After mommy's show in Osaka, we headed to Kochi, on Shikoku Island.
Mommy's old friend picked up us at the hotel, and hit the road to Shikoku.

His family is so much fun. 6 & 9 year old sisters were very curious to see Pillow and Soprano. 6 yrs younger sister was so good at faking Amazon yelling we didn't recognize which was really yelling.

Shikoku, the fourth biggest island in Japan is such a beautiful place. People make living by farming and fishing and so many natural forest and rivers are still there.

This is beautiful Shimanto River.
So calm, so beautiful, even devine.

Day 2: mommy's show

Day 2: mommy's show at Nagisa Music Festival in Osaka.

Mommy's good friend and great guitarist from Argentina, Fernando Kabusacki joined mommy's show.

This is the back stage tent. Pillow is in Soprano's yellow back pak.
Beautiful guitar behind Soprano is Fernando's Tokai Les Paul.

On warm and fine day with lots of crowds, mommy and Fernando played the guitar loud!
Pillow totally loved that but Soprano seemed a little nervous. :@
