Orientation for Leaving the Dorm

It is already the time to discuss about details on getting back home! There was an one-hour orientation this afternoon, and every one had the details on ways to go to the airport, as well as expectations of the cleaning before the leave.
There is an extra photo here, a typical lunch scene from a few days ago...

School Visit

This is another unforgettable afternoon. The entire group had a chance to visit an elementary school, and received a warm welcome. We first shared a school meal with those students, joined their daily activity of cleaning classrooms, and then enjoyed a culture presentation formed by many small sections. Obviously it took an enormous amount of time to prepare such great presentations for all of us.

Third Blog Entry in Japan

We had another set of fine writing on our blogs. More and more rich culture and social facts are discovered and discussed, many with wonderful pictures.

GSP Japan Culture

On Friday, GSP on Japanese culture from University of Calgary arrived at the same dormitory. The instructor of that program, Sharp-sensei is writing a blog on their daily activities. A link has been added to the right section. Please take a look!

Home Visit

This weekend all will leave the dorm., and each finds and stays in a host family for two nights. Needless to say, it is a nervous experience. But surely it is valuable, unique and will not be forgotten.

Odaiba

It took us almost 2 hours to get there. The entire group enjoyed sightseeing, and then walked to a popular hot spring. For quite a few, this was the very first of such an experience, and surely it provided an unforgettable memory.
