Masa's Report Ｎｏ3 (August 2-6) Sunday to Thursday
Sunday: Etowah Atifacts

Today we went to the Etowah Indian Mounds.　 This is the first time I have ever seen an artifact outside of Japan.　 The way of life of the American Indians can be compared to the Yayoi and Jomon peoples in Japan.　 At the museum I saw the video and many interesting things.　 The Etowah Mounds are like the Yayoi Kofun mounds, but the biggest mound is like a Japanese Buddhist temple area.　 The mound was very big and difficult to climb.　 The decorations that the Etowah leaders wore must have been heavy, but they were cool.　 The eagle design was the best.

Monday: I slept

I slept half of the day.

Tuesday: Fetching Water

We went to Joe's spring again.　 It was fun, but Joe took us the LONG way around to the spring, so I am very tired.　 But it was very fun.

Wednesday: The Indian Store

Today we went to Dahlonega's town square.　 The best store there was an Indian store.　 At the store, there were tools and art made by the Indians.　 I bought a present for my sister called a "dream catcher," a decoration/tool to catch good dreams.　 I hope my sister catches bad dreams!

Wednesday: Out House

Today we built a toilet.　 At Joe's house, the toilet is still not finished so we made an instant toilet.　 Hope it does not break (while I am sitting on it).　 Baki-baki, gutyu (Squish-squish, plop!).

Thursday: Making a Trail

From this morning, we made a trail.　 As we made the trail, I had the feeling that "this is nature."　 This was a new feeling for me.　 But after that, we went to the river and I felt "crazy!"　 The reason was that Joe and I went swimming without any clothes.　 But it was fun!
