Around Christmas time (2017)

Christmas at home

Long time no see....

I am so very sorry that for technical problems I wasn't able to upload photos here. I am going to try to do this more regularly from today on.

Here are some photos of what happened the past few months.

I am in California with students. We arrived on Tuesday and will be visiting some schools here in Riverside and in Los Angeles. I will keep you posted. Today we went to Martin Luther King High School in Riverside and Japanese and American students sang "Sakura" together. The JIU students received a very warm welcome by two different groups of students. They also received a T-shirt as a gift (photo 2).
