Diary while in Japan - June 27, Friday

This was taken in a busy street of Tateishi: there was a small empty lot where a lot of weeds were growing. The early evening light was very nice on them.

June 27, Friday---I left Ft. Lauderdale very early, 7:00am of June 26, Thursday, and arrived at Narita Airport around 1:00pm on Friday. It took like 15 hours but seems like one whole day plus 6 hours!
Soon after I got home to Mom, I had to go out to get some Japanese money, and my bank was in the town called Tateishi where one of my photo friend lives. It's just 5 or 6 bus-stops away, I took a walk to see him in his school. He has his own English school, I saw him teaching some small kids. Everybody looked happy learning English and that was so wonderful.
26日の朝5時頃家を出て、日本についたら27日の午後1時ですから、丸一日と8時間もかかったような感じです。いつも、一日損した!って気がします。
隣町立石まで、日本のお金をおろしに行ったついでに、インターネットの写真サイトを通じての友達、エリックに会いに行くことにしました。偶然近くに住んでいることがわかったときにはビックリしたものでした。彼は英語の学校を経営しています。私が行ったときには子供たちを教えていました。楽しそうで面白そうで、こんな風に英語を習えるなんて良かったね!みんなで英語の歌を歌ってくれました。
