A Tour of Ibara City

Throughout the last couple of days, my supervisors have randomly taken us out of the city office for 'car rides'. They've taken us to cool spots all around the city. Super markets, shopping centers, cell phone stores, the schools we'll be teaching at, etc. Finally, they took us to the Kyuu-Dou (Archery facility). It was amazing. There were some middle schoolers from Hiroshima practicing. The bows they were shooting were nearly twice their length, and the target was about 80 yards away (and less than 24 inches diameter). Needless to say, they rarely hit the target, but they were all amazing shots. I was allowed to snap one quick photo:


I imagine i'll find myself in the Kyuu-Dou soon enough...
