Iida High School

The teacher in this picture is my host family.  I will be staying with him and his wife Saturday and Sunday.  He teaches English, so he invited us in to talk to his class.

Another cat.  This one was in the library.



Iida's JoyMart aka Walmart
This store had everything... groceries, restaurants, clothes, shoes, even a 100 yen store!  
Iida is a small town, so we were there quite often.

No. I did not eat this.  This is a pig liver.  They eat it raw.  
The pork in Iida is known to come from healthy animals so it is ok to eat it raw.
Yes- I ate this.  It is a mushroom soup with potatoes and carrots.  
It was very good.
This sweet couple served us food for the week in their teeny tiny restaurant.
I think they were sad to see all the Americans go.  We filled their place every night.
