Day 16


Hello! How was everyones fourth?? I hope it was good! Today I did a lot! I woke up and had breakfast. Then my host mom took Halu to the park while her friend and I watched the second Mamma Mia movie. I loved it! Then my host mom, her friend, and I went to a cafe and shopping after my host dad got home from work.  The cafe we went to was so cute and I got butter chicken curry and it was SO GOOD. I love the curry in Japan, its so delicious. Then we went shopping at a couple stores and grocery shopped. We were going to have hamburgers for dinner today but instead we had pork. But we had corn on the cob as a side. After all that, my host dad watched Halu while my host mom, her friend, and I went to onsen! It was very relaxing. If you dont know what onsen is, its like a piblic bath/hot tub. Its a little awkward at first but its a part of their culture and they are used to it. The men and women have separate areas. The water was super relaxing and warm. They had a lot of cool things at the onsen place! They had a bar, a restaurant, a tv room, a book room, karaoke, and many other things. It was very cool. Im so tired now so I am going to sleep! Goodnight!

Travel Day

 Hello everyone! This is my first post lol. I’m writing this as I am sitting in the Chicago International Airport waiting for my flight. We left our house at 7:00 AM to catch my 11:50 flight. As we were about 20 minutes away, I learned that the flight got delayed until 3:30 PM. So here I am, in the airport waiting for another 2 hours. TSA was really nerve wrecking to go through alone but I made it! I was sad to say bye to my family but it all turned out okay. I am quite nervous about my flight. It’s 13 hours 😔. However, I think I will be okay. I am excited to land in Japan and meet my host family!  P.S ignore the labels on top until I figure out how to get rid of them lol this airport WiFi kinda sucks

Hello everyone! I know its been a couple of days. I have been pretty busy! Two nights ago, I was at a camp for yfu kids and I barely had any reception. Last night I typed this post pit but I fell asleep before posting it lol. So this is what happened the past three days. On saturday, I went to this gigantic mall with Nanami, Ibuki, and Stef. It was huge and it was sooo fun! I bought an expensive bracelet (sorry mom) but it was cheaper here than it would be in the US so a win is a win. The next day, I had to go to a YFU camp in the middle of no where with some YFU kids. It was pretty fun but I wanted to spend time with my host family instead. They served us dinner and we played a bunch of games and stuff. The next day, so yesterday, they took us to Narita to see a famous temple. The temple was amazing. The temples here are so gorgeous and I love looking at them. I attached a picture of a building here and its super colorful! I found out it was made of completely wood! Anyways, we got to...

Hellooooo! I had sooo much fun today. I had such a hard time sleeping last night. There was a huge storm last night. It was pouring with really bright lightning and really loud thunder. It was really scary! The power went out for a bit so that was crazy. I felt like I was back home im WI lol. I didnt sleep until 1am so I slept in today. This morning I taught my host dad how to play skull king! We had a lot of  fun foguring it out. Then some old lady neighbors came over to help us wear yukata! Yukata is traditional summer clothes. I aas originally supposed to wear one of my host family’s but the lady let me use hers. After I put it on, she decided to give it to me so now I own a pretty pink Yukata! Then we hung out until it was time to go to a family friends house. My host mom knows her through the daycare that she tales Halu to. She lives in a traditional style Japanese house and it was absolutely gorgeous. We hung out there for a while and then we stopped at a bakery on the way ho...
