Fish are flying!



It's what we've all been waiting for: a personal tour with star reporter Ai Ikeda! In this audio postcard, Ai shows us the vibrant sounds of Pike Place Market. She made two versions, one in Japanese and one in English. She started with the Japanese, so she could get all of her ideas out first. Then, with the Japanese version as a guide, she recorded the English version--and it's obvious in both languages that she's a natural!

Here's the English version.






And here's the Japanese postcard.







If you speak both languages, listen in, and tell us what you think of the pair!
