Thursday we visited Sagamihara Park. We were supposed to meet up with a bunch of friends, but we were a little late. So we hit the zoo first, then tried to find everyone. Adam was excited for his second pony ride.
Adam and Lottie had a fun time petting the guinea pig. They fed carrot sticks (ninjin) to the guinea pigs, goats, sheep, and rabbits.
The hydrangea are just gorgeous (still!) at the park. I tried to get Adam and Lottie to pose for some pictures, but I just got one child that yelled, "NO!" and ran away, and one that screamed at me, cried when I set her down, then ran off (too) after I took this teary picture.
After that, we finally found our friends. Japanese call foreigners "gaijin," and a group of gaijin kids that big was a definite draw. Here's Riley - he's only three months old, and oki (big).
Lottie had fun on the baby swing.
Tate loved the baby swing too. Baby swings are rare in Japan, so this was a nice treat for the girls.
Adam and Calum pushed the stroller around for awhile. You bring them to a great park, and they play with the STROLLER. Kids! Then they insisted on eating their snack on the stroller too.
Lottie, Tate, and Aiden had fun toddling around.
Abby (and her mommy Denise) giving her infamous stink eye.
Ainsley brought enough fruit snacks and seaweed (nori) to share with everyone! We weren't sure that the boys would eat it, but once Ainsley showed them her nori-eating technique (cram the entire sheet in mouth), they both ate it too. Yummy!
