Meeting My Host Family (June 21)

So, on this day, we finally broke apart from our YFU groups and went to go meet our host families (unless you were one of those few who'd already done so...)

So, here I am with my host parents after getting off the shinkansen (bullet train)

Right off the bat, they took me sightseeing (after going to get some lunch at an okonomiyaki restaurant). We stopped by Nagoya-joo (Castle) and here I am sitting on one of the golden dolphins that is atop practically every castle in Japan.

Now, here I am outside of Nagoya-joo

My first real Japanese meal!! (Stupid YFU people forcing us to eat Western food in Japan!! Bah Humbug) BTW, that's all sashimi... And yes, I did eat it all.
