Last year, when my sister and I were in Japan our first night.
In a hotel that was so nice. We met with the Area Authority of Asia.
With all of their efforts and their wives, they tried to keep our poor tired selves up (mom, dad, whit and I)
We had a seven course meal. It was like the seven course meal of death.
We were so tired. We wanted that sleep so badly.
When we got to sleep it was late. They were good to keep us up.
We actually slept in late, Whit and I. Being in our own hotel room.
We got a phone call, me picking it up wondering who could be calling me.
It was a voice telling me that we were being loud that we needed to be quiet.
I apologized and then realized that voice was my mothers.
She laughed and laughed.
Well...
Yesterday morning. We went to Takayama for a festival and some fun.
We woke up in the morning, early because we are still on that time frame. As in we I mean Lindsay, Cydne and I.
I told them the hilarious story of our mother and that phone call our first morning.
One of my sisters thought it would be funny if we did it to her.
So I called her, I practiced my line I was going to use. That I have perfected.
Watashi wa ondori ga dai kiri des.
(I hate roosters)
When my mom answered the phone. I lowered my voice and made it raspy.
I repeated my line I had practiced several times to say it fast like the Japanese. Which lets be honest...it wasn't that fast.
After I said it to my amazement my mom bought it.
She replied with her "Oh one second".
My dad then got on the phone saying "moshi moshi" (how you answer the phone here)
I was dying of laughter. I couldn't stop. My mom bought it more then I did last year.
My sisters and I were are all dying of laughter and my dad put my mom back on the phone.
Where my mom said how she believed it because she is so use to answering the phone and hearing Japanese. That when she does she just passes it off to my dad.
But I did it. I got the prankster. Wa ha ha ha
