Akiva had a swimming competition. He self nominated to all races, free style, breast stroke and back stroke for 25m. Wonderful race, Akiva!

 

(it was a little difficult getting the kids to stay in the same time-space continuum long enough to take a low-light picture…below are the trials.)

We had good Cheese Cake birthday cake. We also had some pretty flowers for decoration.\

 

 

Akiva’ favorite game “Kamen Rider Battle Ganbaride”

Akiva is going down on the long slide.

At a staircase, Japanese kids play “rock, scissors, paper”. When you win, you can go up.

 

Akiva is getting practice riding a bicycle on the hills up and down. We are going through 8 different 7-Eleven stores to get different Pokemon character stamps by bike. This type of stamp collection is a ritual among kids during summer vacation. Thank you for the Pokemon, Akiva mastered riding hills.

 

Every day Akiva wants to eat noodle. Today we went to see The BOLSHOI CIRCUS─ the Russian National Circus in Kannai. At the Kannai station, there was a Udon noodle stand which satisfied Akiva very much. The circus was very classic. It seemed like nothing changed since I saw when I was small. However the clown was very charming, not scary one. I like the updated Russian clown.

 

We went to our local community, Yokodai West summer festival.Akiva loved flowing noodle.
Akiva and Kenaz had to grab the noodles quickly. Otherwise they flow away fast.
Kenaz played quoits.
Akiva played shooting rubber bands.
