Some Views

Last night, I met up with a number of the other language teachers in the area and hung out in a park by the bay before heading across town to a bar for some karaoke.  They were a great group of people and all of them have been teaching anywhere from 2 to 4 years in Nagasaki city, so hopefully that bodes well for me.

I spent my saturday out walking and getting acquainted with the area.  I saw this amazing bridge covering the entrance to the harbor and decided to spend the rest of my afternoon walking to it.  It took about 2 hours to get there since I was just doing it by sight, but I made it and the view was well worth it.  I did get a bit sunburned and managed to sweat through 2 shirts and a thick pair of khaki shorts (by sweat through, I mean the entire pair of shorts were wet and it looked like a whole new color).

Yea it is, I'd like to find something nicer though because it can't do night shots. I probably took 200 pictures that day and just picked out the ones that came out best.
