Day Tour Tokyo

0509    We enjoyed the first day in Tokyo by a fully packed tour. 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.

Arrived!

0508    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…(!)

Leaving for Japan

0507


We are leaving for Japan! The flight is at 13:45, but many kept to write to the Line group even at around 3 or 4 in the morning, and the earliest arrival at the airport was some four hours earlier. Boarding procedures went smoothly, and flight left right on time. At the airport, the instructor was approached by one who was working at the food court that her son was a member of the same group last year!

First Blog Entry

0505


  By now we have completed all pre-departure classes, and we are ready to fly in two days! To conclude the learning in campus, we have created and published five blogs each by a group of four members. The topics literally cover a wide range, and each title is a product of intelligent and elegant thinking. Please enjoy them!
