#field trip

During the Field Trip arc, Korosensei wrote 26 copies of a guidebook, one for each student, spanning 1344 pages. When Roll Book Time was published, Matsui Yuusei also wrote an extract of this Guidebook as a bonus gift of sorts.

(In addition, if he included the whole guidebook, the whole package will become very, very expensive)

This post will outline the basic gist of each page so that you can have a general idea of what they’re about, as well as the overall tone of the book.

But if you want to ask about certain bits of the pages, you are free to do so via this

Kyoto Field Trip Guidebook ~ Table of Contents (2) (Pg 4 – 5)

The page on the right shows a directory for:

• Tokyo dialect to Kyoto dialect
• What to say when you greet someone
• What to say when you look at (sample?) food
• Phrases to use when you’re touring, shopping and visiting a Maid Café

The page on the left shows a directory of temples and shrines in Kyoto

Various things to watch out for during the Field Trip (Pg 38)

#41 – Yatsuhashi are available to sample, but be careful not to eat too much

#42 - There are lots of temples, but there’s a limit to how many you can visit in a day. If you focus on just one area, you can visit 4-6 places, if you go to separate areas you can only visit 2-3 places. (Octopus: Nuruhuhuhu, Sensei can visit 1000 places)

#43 – At large intersections there will be lots of buses with the same route number. If you are unsure, please ask someone at the bus station

#44 – When asking locals for directions they will say things like “go up” (agaru) and “go down” (sagaru). “Go up” means “head North” and “go down” means “head South”

#45 – When all is said and done, Free Time is meant to be time spent touring within Kyoto. Although that theme park in Osaka is only 50 minutes away, please don’t dilly-dally for too long. (Octopus: It is Free Time within Kyoto)

Map 1 – the city of Kyoto, public transport routes included (Pg 78 – 79)

The bottom left even has a table for “Sensei’s travel times from Kyoto Station” (to different locations, at Mach 20, furthest location requires 2.5 seconds)

• Bottom-left octopus: Sensei only needs about 20 seconds to circle all the locations. If anything happens I will come straight away, so please call me

Map 2 – Famous locales of assassination within Kyoto City (Pg 112 – 113)

Kyoto is a place famous for its assassinations. Check out the big name assassinations, then let’s make use of those in your assassination plans.

• Bottom-right octopus: Bakumatsu-era Kyoto featured a large variety of assassination methods
• Bottom-left octopus: The history of Kyoto makes a great reference book

Opportune Assassination Places in Kyoto City (1) (Pg 264, 287)

Consider the characteristics of each location, so that you can decide on how to have fun and how to kill.

• These are all the spots that Class E visited obviously (makes you wonder if the Guidebook is what they decided the spots with)
• When your classmate gets abducted –> 1243

Let’s enjoy Kyoto ~ Personal Experience ~ (Pg 454, 461)

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, and a personal experience is better still. You can only personally experience something at the place itself, so take the chance to learn more about the culture.

• Experiences listed include cosplays, candy-making, tea ceremonies, Taiko drumming and Kabuki transformation, among others
• If you played too much and your wallet only has 2000 Yen left –> 1242

An Introduction to Ryokan (Japanese Inn) Recreation (Pg 624, 629)

Use of Ryokan Facilities – explains:

• The retro game arcade (most likely the one Kanzaki played),
• Table tennis (Korosensei teases that he can play double matches against himself at Mach speed), and
• The bathhouse (things you’re not allowed to do include swimming, checking/comparing physiques and peeping, which goes for the girls too)

Things you can do in the rooms (3)

• Pillow fights (For complete tactics on pillow fights and examples of field correspondence –> 693)
• Sharing Love Stories - A Sensei Recommendation! (Ironic considering he didn’t share his)

Recommended Spots during Free Time (Pg 936, 959)

Korosensei’s recommendations for if you want to:

• Sightsee
• Get acquainted with Kyoto
• Look at where couples hang out
• Try your hands at matchmaking (Enmusubi), etc.

Recommended Kyoto Souvenirs (Pg 1206, 1213)

Recommendations include food and other goods

• Bottom-right octopus: Buy something after you have thought about what happens when you return home! (ie think before you buy)
• Bottom-left octopus: Don’t forget about souvenirs for Sensei!

And that’s all the pages. Man, Eyeball-sensei is absolutely ridiculous when it comes to the most trivial and minute details, but in a good way

A weekend away.

Don Draper is finally out of his extended field trip/malaise and ready to get back working… even if it’ll look fundamentally different. (Only social drinks with clients allowed? That office mini-bar will look mighty different.) However, to prep for his new life (or at least, to cope with the anxiety of its inevitable arrival) his old friend shows up. Never change Don Draper.

After a long time there are colors. Yeah!

Entering 2^nd-5^th graders have two camp options: Wetland Explorers (discussed in a blog from 2 weeks ago found HERE) or Ocean Explorers, a camp of similar structure but focusing on a different habitat. Ocean Explorers camp is about “whole world’s ocean” and how we are connected to it. Campers will learn about various habitats such as the highly productive kelp forest, the harsh sandy beach, the ever-changing rocky shore and the dramatic open ocean which is strongly characterized by physical factors. Diverse populations of marine algae and animals are found along the rocky coast as well as in the open ocean. Wind, sunlight, tides and other physical factors create a complex environment, and the animals that are a part of northern California’s coastal community have incredible adaptations for survival.

Ocean Explorer camp, as well as MSI’s other camp options, is geared toward California’s science standards taught during the school year, and is fun and interactive. Hands-on lessons, animal touching, games, crafts, songs and more are themed toward the material to engage campers to embrace the communities along our nearby coastline.

Tidepool findings

Always a fun time on the boat!

Looking for more creatures

Nice jaws!

All Ocean Explorer camps have:

• 2 days at our site to study live animals from our aquarium and to engage in other science projects both indoors and outside
• 2 field trips (reached by school bus) that feature different habitats
• 1 day aboard our ship that includes fishing, studying plankton, sampling mud, and learning about nautical navigation
• 2 staff plus a volunteer for every 15 campers
• Flexible curriculum that engages multiple learning styles

Campers will be going on two field trips during their week at camp: Bean Hollow State Beach and the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary Visitor Center. Bean Hollow (along the coast about 17 miles south of Half Moon Bay) offers ample opportunity for tide pool exploration and other activities. Campers will be able to find hermit crabs, black turban snails, sea anemones, purple shore crabs, sea stars with 5-6 arms, and more! This region also offers a coastal walk where campers can spot common native and non-native coastal plants, and even find a harbor seal haul-out where these marine mammals are commonly seen resting on the rocks.

The second field trip is a visit to the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary Visitor Center in San Francisco. Located near Crissy Field, this facility has been transformed from old Coast Guard Buildings and is found along the beach. Campers will explore the region looking for crabs along the shoreline and taking part in crab population surveys. They will also drag a plankton net through the water and compare the coastal plankton to that found in the south Bay at our facility. Campers will also take part in a marine debris project with the Ocean Conservancy; they will contribute to a survey in which they will account for and tally the number of trash items found. The data will be entered into a database and submitted to the Ocean Conservancy, which will be compiled and become a part of a report for the city of San Francisco and contribute to the global project placed by the Ocean Conservancy.

Join us for a week full of fun, lessons, games, and interactive activities that are sure to excite your camper and inspire their love for the life within the California coastline and open ocean. Camps run Monday through Friday, 8:30am-3pm with extended care available until 5:30pm. Camp July 5th-8th still has spots available!

While I stand up to your being
You’re not real, just like me
We were never our bodies
We’re just us, energy
Hot like melting ice crеam

This is what Simon and River think of the Tornado Warning and impromptu field trip to the downstairs bathroom right in the middle of breakfast. We all feel safer with Mr. Giraffe guarding the door.
