Can Tho was nice, and the examinee was friendly

Had the exam here. The examinee had to take an english exam, an essay, and a interview. I think he did ok.  Anyways, we are catching the red eye flight back to Fukuoka after filling up on pho.

Now in Can Tho, Vietnam to administer an exam

In Can Tho to help administer an exam for our 5year PhD program with Prof. Sakakura. Was expecting two examinees, but one got poached by a different university. Oh well. It would have been a free ride with a stipend. Too bad. Had pigeon and gobi (a local fish) for dinner. Not bad.

Engine trouble, back to Nagasaki

The title says it all. No fieldwork in Iriomote this year.

This years Naha, Iriomote, Ishigaki Trip

Unlike last year, there's no typhoon this year. But the weather is not good. Clouds and rain is the forecast for Iriomote. We finally arrived near Amami Oshima, and so I attached a bad photo. The going from Nagasaki was a bit rough, but its been smooth the last few hours.

Jellyfish got me

It's called Gonionemus vertens or カギノテクラゲ. This little guy decided that my wrist was a great place to take a break. It was just itchy at first, but that was 6 hours ago. Now I have muscle and joint pain, throughout my body. Lot's of fun.
