An Amazing BBQ Day!

Today Was an amazing day! Clear blue sky and we got there, not a cloud! Wow! Warm as well, we could just stay outside in t-shirt.

Today was the Official Welcome BBQ party of the Toyo Japanese College (神戸東洋日本語学院). The school organized everything, from the grill to the meat. We only had to bring our own drinks.

I'ts a pity the BBQ is only once a year... I remember my last BBQ (before this one) was with my Colleagues in Acer in the summer of 2008. Grilling is my passion ;)

After lunch, we went to the shore, and everybody started jumping. So i took some pictures of which i post a couple of them...

I think these will be the last days of sunshine and mild weather before the winter comes. Then it will be quite cold until April next year.

Interesting thing: Japanese houses don't have a Central heater. They use Oil heater or the Air Conditioner that can be switched to "Heating-Mode" in winter. All electric. I was a little bit surprised and i'm not sure why. Interesting thing is that most houses are family houses not high buildings. Maybe the cost for a central heater and realated installation (besides the cost of oil) is a reason why nobody has one...
