Homestay Day 13-Asuke(足助）,Bowling

Asuke(足助） is the best sport to see maple leaves during Autumn. It shows the old Japanese village and there are a lot of demonstrations on how they make a life in old time (around 1940).

The water is very clean

Bowling in Star bowl. In Malaysia the bowling center situated in shopping complex. In Japan, usually bowling is with Pachinko. The bowling shoes are nice, go to the vending machine of bowling shoes stating your size, put coin, and the shoes will come out (Just like how you buy drink)

It was fun, even I played badly..haha..
