Futons

Sleeping on futons is very comfortable. While you are out eating dinner, the hotel staff put out all the futons for you! It is snowing heavily today....

Our dinner

A Japanese feast. Everything was delicious!

Staying at a Ryokan

Our traditional hotel room with tatami mats.

Leaving Kesennuma

We are leaving Kesennuma this morning. This is the train station opposite the hotel. Before we leave we are going back to a Junior High School to do some art with the kids. It will be a lot of fun! I hope you are having a good weekend in Christchurch :-)

Lectures

Miss Jones and I have been going to a lot of really interesting lectures :-) My japanese is getting better..... slowly!

More snow!

This is the view from my hotel room. It doesn't usually snow so much in Kesennuma, but there has been a lot of snow this week! It's so cold we need to wear lots of clothes to keep warm :-)

Breakfast

おはようございます、this is my yummy breakfast in the hotel. We have been very busy this week! Today we are meeting more people who work in schools in Japan. We have lots to share when we get home :-)
