Japan's food is delicious and I haven't tried a single thing I haven't liked!

In Japanese class, we watched a Japanese Drama to help us improve our language comprehension. The characters always go up to the top of their school building and bond with each other. This is where a lot of the main scenes happen. When, we were touring Otemae High  School, I took a step onto the top floor and was star struck that the top of their school building was the same as in the TV episodes!  My first reaction was “Wow, this is just like the Japanese Drama I watched.... Sugoi, wow!” Seeing a similar scene in real life made me in denial and star shocked.  Incredible things can occur!

June 8th around 6:30am, I picked up a tray, with a fried stick thing. I thought was fried breaded fish cake. But, I really didn’t know what to expect. When I sat to eat it, it was so good! It was a fried hard boiled egg. It was so oishi and unexpected. I was super shocked about how delicious and innovated it was. --Kamm

We went to Seiwa school and the ambassadors shared their presentation on Hawaii, helped with English, performed their hula, sang songs, played games, shared their testimonies, and made NEW FRIENDS!

We are at Seiwa school today having loads of fun. The people in Kochi are all amazing. Thank you all for your support! 😍👍

Seiwa students got a special treat:  Aunty Lila sang the song "Sakura" as the students played it on their instruments in music class... (can someone identify the instrument for me?  - Aunty Cheryl)
