回旅館後發現網路已經搭好了. Dr. Weber在晚餐的時候跟我們說雖然他知道我們都很想去看祭典不過因為要趕工所以就沒辦法了. 有點小失望不過至少在神社度過了難忘的一天.而我當天的日記就以我邊喝可爾必思邊寫著日記結束了.

Got up at the usual 5am.
What was different about the dig that day was that there a bunch of loud drunks at the house next to us. When we were doing our usual digging, we heard loud, loud laughter. We thought it was kind of strange but we didn't pay much attention to them until we realized that they hadn't stop laughing in the whole morning. The inevitable conclusion was they were drunk even before noon. It was either Tomoda or Kato sensei who told us there was a matsuri (festival) the day after so they were just preparing for that....by getting drunk. Even after lunch, they were still drinking and laughing. I noticed one of them looked at us and soon, they all came to check out what we were doing. They invited us to go drink with them after the dig even though we had our doubts, for example, they were drunk and they offered to drive us there. Right..... They really insisted so we couldn't say no so we went after work.

We went on our usual van but Tomoda sensei rode on the back of those drunks' truck. Sigh.....he did that just for us lol. The shrine is located at a small hill by a small dock. It was a fox worshipping jinsha called, "Inari Jinsha." These kinds of fox worshipping shrines are located throughout Japan with the center being at the one in Kyoto. We got invited into the shrine where they had food and beer. One of the drunks introduced to me as Shuu. Amanda said Shuu is the PTA president at the local elementary school. I was like wow.....PTA president was DUI. He was asking me where about where we were from. I said I was from Taiwan then he said Taiwan is a nice place. I asked him had he ever been there before and he said no. LOL He also asked me who the "cute girl" was. I said that girl's name was Jess and she was only 19. So before we left, we took a group photo which I think it's one of the best picture that I have. So, Shuu was giving us directions for backing our car but I think he was too drunk to give us the correct direction since we almost fell from the little hill. It was cool tho for him......since he was all smiles
Tom drinking. Daniela smiling.

By the time we got back to the hotel, the internet was set up. All of us were really looking forward to the matsuri but Dr. Weber said we still had work to do so going there was out of the question. We were really disappointed but at least we had a great day. I ended my diary of the day with this sentence, "Now hanging out in lobby doing nothing except this and drinking calpis."
