Back to School

Summer break has ended. Second term is starting today. I will leave the house in a few minutes and head to school. Probably we will have an assembly today to welcome everyone back. I want the students to talk about what they did during summer vacation, but I expect they will be very shy.

Yesterday I climbed a mountain near my home called Kyou ga Mine. I bought three large rice balls and two bottles of tea before hiking to the summit. I also brought a book to read and my Bible to study. My pack was a little heavy. The weather was beautiful and I could see a long way. I stayed at the top for about six hours enjoying the fresh air and cool breeze.

Just by chance, I met a friend at the top of the mountain. I also made a new friend. He likes to read ancient Japanese documents.
