I’ve finally got around to uploading some pictures of the Boy Scouts in Mutsu. Enjoy..

Tuesday I decided to stretch my legs and go for a walk in Ominato. I grabbed my jacket, pair of beat up sneakers, and my new toy the iPhone 4s and went walking around snapping pictures here and there.  Below is a album of my walk.

When I get the chance, I’ll try to do more of these walks.

Today I was invited by Scoutmaster Takase (Far left) to check out a cub scout “Beavers” event happening in my town of Mutsu. I had fun talking with the scout leaders about their small troup (kumi) of 3 scouts and a handful of cubscouts. I got to find out a little bit about Japanese Boy Scouts, as well as talk about BSA. Aparently two of the leaders there told me that next week they were going to start their woodbadge training! Good luck! (Aparently its just as tough in Japan as it is in the US.)
