RICE!

So, one thing that I have noticed since I arrived, is that there are plenty of rice fields around my house. I live in an area of the town of Kanami called Tagata (田方). This means, 'the way of fields'. I now understand why we are called that. I luckily was able to capture some pictures of the fields next door to me before my camera died. So, here is my tribute to rice. It's a nice view when the sky is clear and you can see the mountains rising in the background. Within the next month, the rice harvest begins, so I won't be able see this beautiful view for much longer. I hope you like it! Oh and I tried eating some grains of rice off the plant. I kind of suggest doing it, I also kind of don't.
