Unexpected Turn of Events

The Castle is actually in this picture. LOL

I just want to preposition you: I havenʻt taken any pictures today.  Aurora said that she will send me the pictures from one of our events today as I didn't have a camera with me...but, it can't be helped.  I will however, post pictures from other days.  I just didn't want it to seem like I was lying to you, my beloved reader, about what exactly I've experienced day in and day out.

Today was a pretty amazing day aside from waking up far more early than I had originally anticipated.  I realized that my mattress is really uncomfortable so I flipped it over in hopes that tonight it will go better.  I'll be sure to let you know, as I'm sure that's an extreme interest point.

Lunch today was a little more eventful than I had anticipated.  We went to the University right down the road and ate at their cafeteria, then we were taken to a few offices where I am pleased to announce that we were very well received.  It would turn out that there is coincidentally a group of students here from Illinois, and they were about to be taken on a private tour to the Matsuyama Castle (pictures to come later). They were kind enough to allow us to join them, and we got a private tour guide for the castle!  It was really awesome, but we had to leave early because we had our first official meeting.

We got back to the center in time to rest a little, and then we began our meeting to plan out our first school visit.  Summary: I'm really excited about it!  I'll keep you posted

Oh by the way, first day of formal Japanese Language class today...it was great.
