Kyoto :-D

Hi all! In Kyoto now and we are going to Nara today for a field trip. I've seen a bunch of temples and shrines which has been really fun and interesting to look at. We have our first free day tomorrow so we'll get to explore Kyoto on something besides a bus haha. It was really hard leaving my host family and its weird now to be living in a hotel. I'm definitely more excited now to be living with a host family in the Bahamas this summer :) We have one more tour on Saturday of Hiroshima (which I'm very exicted for I want to see memorials and pay respect for the past) and then the rest of the days we're traveling and traveling and traveling haha. Should be good though its nice to spend some time with the class since we really havent except for classtime. My Japanese isnt half bad I've actually retained some of the lessons which is pretty cool. Still super blonde american though everyone comes up to me and is like "hel-lo wel-come" haha. I miss you all and will be back in the USA monday!!!
Lots of Love,
Sam
