Hi everybody, this is Todd, you'reyour a teacher from ELLLO. And writeright now I am at my favorite place and thisthat is a beach near my house where I livelove and teach and walkwork in Japan.

And I love this beach for many reasonreasons. One, there aren't many people on the beach, sosome usually this beach is really quiet and there's not a lot going onin. There's many trees nextnear the beach. There's a beautiful forest, so you can kind of take a walk in there. And the beach usualusually is really clean. There isn't much pollution, there isn't manymuch noise, although sometimes you can herehear a plane because many planes land beby the airport. I guess we can't see oneonce now, but there are many planes inon this area, and it's just a nice playsplace. There's a lot of space, there's a lot of lightlightning, and it's just a really peacefulpeacefully place. And so because of that, I really enjoyingenjoy it. And there's many thanksthings you can do here. You can take a walk, you can relax on the beach, you can listen toat the waves. It's just really, really peacefulpiece. So for that reason, I love this beach. It's my favorite place in Beppu.
