BBQ In Eda

The weather is still pretty nice in Iwaki. We've been lucky this last week and have experienced many sunny days with temps reaching close to 16 degrees. A group of us took advantage of the sun a couple of weeks ago and had a BBQ in Eda. Eda is the same place where the Potato Club met for their BBQ. I feel the Potato Club BBQ was a real learning experience because it taught me how to prepare for the most efficient BBQ ever. I precut all my veggies and put them in little baggies and prepared my sweet potatoes in tinfoil so perfectly. I thought of everything just like my Japanese friends had a month ago. I was so proud and it was a lovely day.

There were many other people at the campsite that day because once a year there is a sightseeing steam train that runs in Iwaki and that was the day. So as the train passed our site the Japanese people all lined up to snap photos of this train as it made its sightseeing journey. It kind of cracked me up at the time seeing people so excited about this train and decked out in the most professional looking camera equipment for it, but its all great. Good times!
