LWIF EP8: Fishing at a Japanese Park (Zarigani)!

Hello World! Aiko makes a fishing rod using a branch, string, and squid (very minecrafty)! She then suffers through the heat and allergies to catch the cute zarigani (crayfish). The park is located outside of Tokyo in Chiba. Don’t worry, we didn’t eat the crayfish. We just released them when we left for home. I’ve found catching critters to be quite popular in parks. In the summer months, it’s common to see kids with nets and bug boxes.
