This is a picture I took with my phone of a mostly dry river I was hiking up yesterday. The weather is getting cooler and its great for hiking.Last week I went to Kuchierabu (Island of the Bats) again. The ocean was so rough on the way home I had to lay on my back holding my stomach. My whole body was floating as the ferry lifted off one wave and dropped down onto the next. It didn't help that I had to stay near the bow and below deck, the worst combination in rough water.
I met a really nice family last night and learned that the father makes knives. He said that he would show me how but that it takes months from start to finish. How cool is that.

That is so cool, I hope you take the time to learn to make one. What an old art to learn. You have the time. Does he sell them?

Stew: Was the boat ride worse than the one in Greece?
I wouldn't say it was worse because it was only about an hour of really bad weather compared to our 4 or 5 hours of bad weather. Plus, we were sailing in Greece, so things could never be too bad.
