Matsushima happens to be a bunch of little islands scattered around the area and they are covered in pine trees, hence the name Matsushima which means `Pine tree islands`...or is it cedar trees...ahh oh well, forgot my Jap-English dictionary.
Its just uncanny how phallic it is. Later we headed to our first BBQ of the year and I sported my nice new "nice box" T-shirt to get giggles from the other teachers so the entire day had a slightly phallic undertone I suppose.
Yuyas co-workers are both from the countryside and have thick accents which are fairly impossible to follow so I just smile, nod, drink beer, and chuckle at the appropriate times.

Last weekend we went up to Minakami, an onsen, or hot spring, town nestled in the mountains of northern Gunma, with three other families, all friends.
But no matter, this wasn’t about the town or the hot spring baths at the hotel (call me a philistine but I just don’t find hot springs all that therapeutic, or even relaxing for that matter) so much as it was about getting everyone together in a relaxed setting.
