Rome, we will do our best to check out the taiko factory, it is in Aizu region and that is where we are going next week. Hopefully we will be close to that town.
Patti W., it is so good to hear that you are checking our blog, I hope you enjoy the reading. Say hello to everyone for me at Body Basics next time you go exercise.
Patti S., Mike is doing so well as our team leader, he is very patient with all our craziness, and he is so funny when he uses his video camera. We wish you were here to see him. The slippers everywhere seem to be ok, they have many sizes, however the clothing is difficult for all of us, everything is too small. Exept the kimonos.
Chris, we are going to an area of samourai next week, maybe we will find tanto knives there.
Rebecca, Joel hasn`t stopped laughing yet, he is such a sweet heart and an easy person.
Everyone. We have so much stories already, it has been only 3 days, it is absolutely overwhelming. We miss you though. It is hard to be so far and not be able to communicate with our loved ones at anytime we`d like. It has been raining all day but it`s ok because it was a very formal day with visits to the mayor, newspapers and attorney`s office (for Sarah and Mike).
Tomorrow is going to be our first time doing our presentation in Japanese here in front of everybody at a meeting, we are nervous. We are also going back to a hotel for two days and that should make it easier for us to update the blog and make phone calls.
We love you all, and we miss you very much.
Cecile

Hi Cecile and Mike and everyone, THANK YOU so much Cecile for your blog messages. YOU are awesome. I check everyday and am enjoying your adventure very much.
I saw patti at Gold's this AM and she learned that I am the other "patti" with a small "p" and "i"... fun. I'll check in tomorrow; have a great day!
love, patti
We will be back at the hotel tonight which is wednesday night (tuesday for you guys) and we are staying only 2 nights and then off to our second host families. Today we are having a formal visit day again, at a rotary club meeting for lunch and then a Japanese International Organisation similar to Rotary club but only national, and then tonight we are making our presentation at a welcoming banquet. My host sister said she will be wearing her traditional kimono, I will be posting pictures of that for you, this should be fun.
Lots of love. Cecile
Hi Everyone,

Have lots of fun and be safe.
Love, Rebecca
