Although I managed to get to green belt, any successful implementation would require, as you say, a great degree of patience and stillness on the part of my assailant. I could never quite see how such exercises as "Dan Gun," a complex series of movements resembling an aggressive and regimented game of charades, would terrify any muggers into fleeing. Also, it's unbelievably warm and sunny over here (almost worrying so). Still, I'd trade it for the coldness of Tokyo without hesitation. P.S. I'll send you some photos soon, as requested.

But she loves training me really. She told me so! Setsubun is indeed the demon/good luck festival but I like calling it the bean festival more. I can't really end an update with DEMONS! can I?

You'll have to bring your camera again another week when the sun is out and we're in the main hall again, that place is so depressing. (Although I do love the sponge floor...)
