At my elementary school this week, I asked one of the teachers if she knew a good place to buy a bicycle. It is SO nice having a car, but on sunny days and days that I'm at the BOE I'd like to bike. It'd be nice to get some more exercise, plus I really miss biking.
Anyways, she told me that bikes on the island would be expensive, but that she has a friend who's daughter has gone to university and left her bike. She called the friend and they said I could use it!
So exciting! So, today, this teacher picked me up at my apartment after school and we went and got the bike. It's old, but RED just like my bike in Osaka!! Pretty rusty, but honestly I'm so happy for getting a free bike!! I biked home from their house and holy lord I am out of shape. I mean, I've been going to the gym and all, but biking up hill.... WHEW totally different. I will definitely get my butt kicked, but that's good! :)
It started raining almost as soon as I got home (perfect timing), so no picture of the bike yet. But, I'll take one later this week and put it up.
Yes!!
