My lunch break is between 2:30 and 4pm.
I always go home.
I always go home.
What do I do at home for 90 minutes?
I usually lie on my sofa and watch TV or take a nap.
Monday to Friday, on their way home from elementary school at 3pm, about 200 kids walk by my place.
I see them; they see me.
They must think I’m an invalid or shut in.
The foreigner who’s always lying on the sofa!
About a half dozen kids have started to wave to me as they pass.
And I wave back!
note: if you look closely, you can see “my experiment” on the left.

I’d rather see the same picture with all those kids walking by. That’d be better!

Or a close-up of that “experiment”….is that what I think it is? I’ve missed the “experiment” blog entry so I am clueless.

This is something that you need to cultivate with the kids. Start leaving strange clues for the observant ones to find and figure out!
Ohhhhh! Mysterious Gaijin!

buskerman: I’ll see what I can do about the photo.
w1kkp: “my experiment” is up in my frontpage header area.
Turkish Prawn: maybe I’ll start leaving things in my outside bushes
Good idea!
