Susami

On the first full weekend we had free in Japan, my orientation group, Group B, decided to get together at Sara`s place in Susami. Susami was a very central meeting point between our placements that ranged from Arida to Nachi-Katsura. I met up with Parry and Quinn on the train and we headed south. We were greeted by a summer downpour but it was really exciting to be reunited with all of our new friends. We headed to a nice little restaurant just outside of the station and got a chance to catch up on the first two weeks at our placements.

After catching up, we went to Sara`s apartment which is really a house! She is very lucky to have a nice big place to spread out and make herself comfortable. Plus, she had enough room to house us for the night. After checking out her place, we wandered over to the grocery store to collect snacks and finally it was time to hit the beach! For some of us (ahem, Parry!), it was our first time to ever go to the beach. Too bad none of us were scuba diving since Susami`s claim to fame seems to be an underwater mailbox.

I decided to wander around a bit snapping photos of this ocean side town. Here are a few of my favourite shots from this fishing village.
