Last Full Day in Japan

Today was our last full day in Japan. Each city group gave a presentation on their experience. It was wonderful to share stories, pictures, and artifacts with each other. Most people, myself included, were brought to tears during the presentations. We have all had such an amazing experience words cannot even come close to describing the Japanese people’s kindness, generosity, and respect toward life, and love of nature. I have grown as a person and learned so much!

This evening we had a sayonara buffet.
Mr. Ota (Akishima Board of Education), Keiko (our guide), and Mrs. Itoh (wife of former Akishima City mayor) all attended the sayonara buffet.

I can’t believe I am leaving tomorrow. From the time I wake up until I reach my home it will take 33 hours! I have so much to share when I return home. See you all soon!

Dear Miss Reyes' class,

I miss you too! The food in Japan was very different but most of the time it was delicious. Japan is a very beautiful country. I can't wait to see everyone on Monday.
