Busy week

Ok, well first of all, sorry it's been a few days since I've last posted! I don't know where the week has gone! Let's see...Well, we've had some time off of our internship duties this week. The Japanese school year begins in April and goes until the following March. This week the kids have finals and then they get the next few weeks off. Wednesday and Friday Carly and I only went in for 2 hours in the afternoon to help with some grading. Wednesday night Beth, Carly, and I went to an Indian restaurant in Yabashira. It's technically still part of Matsudo, but sorta its own town. Anyways, the food there was super good, and I had some mango juice to drink.

Thursday we didn't have to go to school at all. I slept in and took my time getting ready. I went into school to practice the piano in the music room. I think I played for a little over an hour. It felt really good! After that I came home and grabbed my camera and went out exploring in Matsudo/Yabashira by myself!

Early in my walk I saw this along the road. It made me laugh and I had to take a picture of it.

Then I found some Mt.Dew, just for you Amber!!

As I was walking down the street I saw a pet store and I decided to go inside. It was there that I fell in love...with a puppy!! I stayed there for at least 15 minutes and just played with it. It was so much fun and I just wanted to take it home with me!

After I visited the pet store I decided to stop in "Mister Donut" and grab something to eat! I got a glazed donut with chocolate on top. It was pretty good. This is one of my favorite places in Japan! haha

After wondering around some more I eventually turned back and headed home. This is me in one of the little mirrors they have on many of the streets to assist drivers to see around the corners.

The Lord blessed me with some amazing scenery coming home!
