Misawa Air Show

Kosuke, Shota's best friend came to visit us! We invited him to visit us as he was not able to take leave for our Singapore wedding due to work issues. Its been at least 3 yrs since i last saw him in Singapore. He's still as skinny as ever lol... 

Shota brought him around and of course there's no gathering without a drinking session. The next day, we went to Misawa Air Show which is held in the Air Force Base. On a typical day, unauthorised personal are not allowed to enter and i am one of them lol! Shota had applied pass for me and its still in the process. Singapore nationality is one of their listed countries not allow to enter at all...... so i think they are still doing background check on me.

However with the Air show, they opened the base to the public on that day so i can go as well! Im surprise by the surge of people walking into the base, it was like all residents of Misawa and nearby towns all came here. Even my in laws from Aomori, stayed 1 night at the hotel to attend the Air Show. I hardly see anything as i have to keep up with Shota and Kosuke walking rapidly in front of me, otherwise we will lost them in the crowd of umbrellas. It was raining continuously throughout the day and we need to navigate through the crowd with pointy umbrellas hitting us... well u get the picture.... 

After a few hours, they decided to leave since they wish to go onsen as shota was drenched and then after we need to drive Kosuke back in time to Hachinohe JR station to catch his bullet train back to Yokohama. Poor Kosuke actually miss his train since there was a jam along the road and everyone was driving carefully due to the downpour. Thankfully, the train attendant was able to change to a later time free of charge after Shota's fierce persuasion. Its pretty useful when Shota has a scary face when he keep frowning at you and look like he will beat you into a pulp any time haha!     

For all, i felt bad for my mother in law, she had to be the chauffeur throughout the day since the guys were drinking, enduring the constant commands in the car as we were rushing to the station. Luckily, nothing bad happened to us.... I was worried about speeding in the rain but then Kosuke need to catch his train so no choice....
