We are such fortunate that we became the last group to stay in the old dormitory and then the very first group to the new dorm.

The instructor joined it only from the second half. Desmond had his birthday cake, and the party sang for him twice. Quite a few drank more than they do normally, but we are all fine, and enjoyed the experience very much.

Our walks covered Meiji Shine, Shinjuku and Skytree. At the shine we observed a beautiful wedding ceremony and touch that very famous power-spot; at Shinjuku we escaped a heavy rain and had a good meal of “creative dishes”; and at the Skytree, the unexpected schedule gave us a chance of shopping. Most became extremely tired and the group separated to small ones in Shinjuku at past 7:00pm. <br></p> <a name='more'></a> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-cC07T5Q03Lk/U21XSg-NVcI/AAAAAAAAC18/bAdgImP57BI/s1600-h/P5091587%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="P5091587" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="P5091587" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-mi17BypPNRI/U21XTXxjLHI/AAAAAAAAC2E/GElNmSyiIVA/P5091587_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="382"></a><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-T2ylGQF6ueY/U21XUYDvZiI/AAAAAAAAC2M/YA-O2y57xUE/s1600-h/P5091606%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="P5091606" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="P5091606" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-bHzmMV9PR3A/U21XVXooPyI/AAAAAAAAC2U/6WoWNYoZka4/P5091606_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="496"></a><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-ljixpK01_h4/U21XV0Eu8AI/AAAAAAAAC2c/oiqXK1vKveU/s1600-h/P5091627%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="P5091627" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="P5091627" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-LkC-AVhMsC0/U21XXQS-FuI/AAAAAAAAC2k/OAEL_RD996s/P5091627_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="448"></a><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-5IEsZ9RoWCQ/U21XYLSFVZI/AAAAAAAAC2s/S8LfZkScwt8/s1600-h/P5091633%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="P5091633" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="P5091633" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-pECDhqNCA6U/U21XZKqOycI/AAAAAAAAC20/ngxEFpWuu_8/P5091633_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="397"></a><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-LuckK79LXZQ/U21XZ1TaAEI/AAAAAAAAC28/n77-f9sy5VY/s1600-h/P5091670%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="P5091670" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="P5091670" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-iyKWMxgNwGY/U21Xa99_f4I/AAAAAAAAC3E/ih4_qDypcp0/P5091670_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="349"></a></p> Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9188523330767474911.post-87597622280175866542014-05-08T14:01:00.001-07:002014-05-08T14:01:36.832-07:00Arrived!<p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-Q1D1Bdi6v40/U2vwjgJzRHI/AAAAAAAAC0E/NBEsCVKuIyA/s1600-h/0508%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img title="0508" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; float: left; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="0508" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-NAou7ffq2b8/U2vwkmoUJ7I/AAAAAAAAC0M/fOeF9Ho_w5M/0508_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="149" align="left" height="149"></a> It was a very smooth flight, and we have arrived Japan as schedule. It took much longer time to process before we came out, and Ms. Matsunobu has been waiting for us for really a while. Bus ride to the campus took a little less time than scheduled, and all luggage went to the room around 7:00pm. Now, we are “home”! At around 9:30pm, quite a few went out, and they saw the instructor who was standing besides the train station, and apparently the purchase of tickets for tomorrow had took him more than a hour…(!)<br><br></p> <a name='more'></a> <p> <a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-1oAfIG69mfo/U2vwlRZK7II/AAAAAAAAC0U/3DOOesvW6uU/s1600-h/0508a%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="0508a" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="0508a" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-SdTcR4Z6gx4/U2vwmHi-3zI/AAAAAAAAC0c/H1AlBwWDeas/0508a_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="391"></a><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-CbSKnmaLXrY/U2vwmy4c1tI/AAAAAAAAC0k/EoYshsGufbc/s1600-h/0508b%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="0508b" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="0508b" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-WKnxl6wmJzA/U2vwnfT9-CI/AAAAAAAAC0s/2s_22OnL5C4/0508b_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="442"></a><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-I75-k7fmIkI/U2vwoNVUPwI/AAAAAAAAC00/LJI0_t8q94o/s1600-h/0508c%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="0508c" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="0508c" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-sqgjigHqBVo/U2vwo6WK_CI/AAAAAAAAC08/TZCj9E7G4q4/0508c_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="436"></a><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-byS6XLFA3Lo/U2vwpbovV1I/AAAAAAAAC1E/8fcEV2JPEfU/s1600-h/0508d%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="0508d" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="0508d" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-QJEj2CQerxc/U2vwqdyr6eI/AAAAAAAAC1M/7Ow2ta9ACHs/0508d_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="346"></a><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-l6i-xljGI2U/U2vwq_xGU0I/AAAAAAAAC1U/WytuC0-rTLg/s1600-h/0508e%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img title="0508e" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="0508e" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-heFPvJIRh5I/U2vwrs6di3I/AAAAAAAAC1Y/_VFkK5DeRfQ/0508e_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="724" height="364"></a></p> Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9188523330767474911.post-71385315656083736942014-05-08T06:15:00.001-07:002014-05-08T06:15:51.475-07:00Leaving for Japan<p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-hTqaFaVVT3A/U2uDZhTVvcI/AAAAAAAACys/H3mBmolpS1o/s1600-h/0507%25255B2%25255D.jpg"><img title="0507" style="border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; float: left; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px" border="0" alt="0507" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-q0F2KBZguP8/U2uDaVl8_gI/AAAAAAAACy0/R4g1LmJo9IQ/0507_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="149" align="left" height="149"></a></p> <p><br>We are leaving for Japan!
