This week there is no school for Roo, and Ryan had off Wednesday because of a national holiday. This gave us a chance to make our way to near Chiba for an overnight visit with Roo’s friend that attended the same preschool, Tsubasa. Tsuabasa’s family has moved to a new home they built on property that has been in the family for many (at least ten) generations. It’s very unique in that it’s surrounded by acres of trees that have survived pestering developers. Buildings remain that were constructed during the edo period. Their home, designed by Tsubasa’s father, is bright and modern, two elements both Ryan and I love. We had a wonderful visit and enjoyed much delicious food prepared by Tsubasa’s mother. Of course the boys enjoyed playing. Roo was hesitant to trek through the forest, but soon became distracted by the abundance of sticks and dirt to dig, or “jack hammer” as he called it.
Tsubasa & Roo happy to see each other and play with toys.
