I used to teach at Miruku Houikuen in Idekita, Nobeoka.
The kids there were a pleasure to be around.
You can rub the tummy of an overweight statue of a man that
is located in front of Miyazaki Band in Nobeoka. They say it is good luck to do so. This man also has large earlobes,
that's a sign of good fortune.
Ramen used to be delivered on 50 cc motorcycles. I
used to get Katsu kare- delivered to my apartment in Midorigaoka almost every night.
The manholes in Nobeoka are made with a picture of two monkeys.
I haven't the slightest idea why there are two monkeys on the manholes. If you can enlighten me, email me at ahner1@hotmail.com.
I've visited the execution grounds of Nobeoka a few times.
I teach at Kawashima Youchien in Kawashima, Nobeoka on Mondays
in the afternoon. I always enjoy going there.
There have been a number of English teachers that have come
to Nobeoka. The ALT's and the teachers in the JET program are always a pleasure to meet.
I really enjoyed the Heisei Youchien graduation ceremony.
It's my seventeenth!
I often take my dog, Whitey Ahner to Nagahama beach in Nobeoka.
She enjoys her runs on the sand and her chasing the birds.
I sometimes whistle. But, I am aware that people are
watching me. So, I often tone it down. They say that white snakes will come toward one who whistles.
Japanese children love to play karuta, a card game where
participants slap at the card being referred to by the teacher.
Mukabaki is a mountain that I still want to climb.
I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
There used to be an alien living in Kami Igata Cho, Nobeoka.
But, he moved to Tsurugaoka Cho, Nobeoka in late 2007.
I entered Miyazaki Byouin for four months in 2007.
It is an experience that I am still trying to live down.
